Car manufacturer Toyota’s Australian finance arm ended a 14 year hiatus from issuing bonds in sterling when it sold the first sterling corporate bond of the second half of 2018. The return of such an issuer will help fuel optimism that issuance in the currency in the second half of the year may help to redress the balance after one of the lowest volumes of first half issuance in the last decade.
