$2 billion of notes will be issued by S&P Global's Mobility Global unit as it prepares for a planned spinoff.
The debt sale will be split across three-, five- and 10-year maturities, giving the business longer-term funding before it separates.
Mobility Global also entered a $500 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility, adding backup liquidity alongside the bond offering.
The financing package signals S&P is setting up the unit with standalone capital and funding access ahead of the separation.
