The financial data and analytics firm disclosed that Mobility Global, its holding company for automotive data assets, will issue senior notes with maturities in 2029, 2031, and 2036.
The move is part of a broader capital restructuring ahead of a planned spinoff.
Strategic Pre-Spinoff Financing
The debt offering comes as S&P Global prepares to spin off its automotive data division, Global Mobility, to existing shareholders.
This unit includes the widely used Carfax vehicle history service.

In addition to the bond sale, Mobility Global secured a $500 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility.
The combined financing aims to strengthen the unit's balance sheet before it becomes an independent publicly traded company.
Proceeds from the notes will fund a cash payment to S&P Global for transferring certain assets, liabilities, and entities.
