Vodafone Group PLC (VOD.LN) said Thursday that it has closed a $2 billion hybrid securities offering that concludes funding requirements for the acquisition of Liberty Global PLC's (LBTYA) assets in central and eastern Europe.

The U.K. telecommunications giant said the securities are due on April 4, 2079 and will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Having raised a total of 20 billion euros ($22.47 billion), Vodafone said it has secured the funding it needed for the acquisition of Liberty assets in Germany, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania. The deal, which was announced in May, is currently being reviewed by European Union antitrust authorities.
