CIBC has potential to price inside Quebec

Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC), which is roadshowing for a euro covered bond, has the potential to price inside last week’s deal for Quebec, bankers told The Cover on Monday. Bankers do not expect covered bond issuance from European banks until the end of August at the earliest. The market has barely reacted to Friday’s downgrade of France by Fitch and in some cases, spreads have actually tightened.
