Issuers set out their wares at Crédit Agricole CIB event

Abbey, Compagnie de Financement Foncier (CFF), Dexia Kommunalbank AG, Erste Bank, La Caixa and UniCredit all made presentations to UK based investors at an event sponsored by Crédit Agricole CIB this week. Whilst it was clear that many issuers are well advanced in their funding for this year, and seem to have plenty of liquidity to draw on, it is also clear that when the funding window re-opens, issuance is likely to take-off.
