Wal-Mart Eyes $1B Unsecured Debt Issue

BENTONVILLE, Ark. -- Wal-Mart has filed a shelf registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission to raise up to $1 billion of unsecured debt. The funds would be used for working capital and to repay short-term debt, which currently totals about $756 million. The move would enable the discounter to swap short-term borrowing for long-term debt at a lower interest rates, although the length of the debt securities and their interest rates still have to be set.
