SSA bond deals of the year

In 2021, sovereigns, sub-sovereigns, supranationals and agencies continued to borrow heavily and rise to the challenge of supporting the global economy’s response to, and recovery from, the Covid-19 pandemic. Of the deals themselves, there was an array of records broken and market firsts across formats and currencies. Looking back over GlobalCapital’s bond comments for the year, our SSA team used its editorial judgement to pick the best deals of 2021. We strove to choose those that were not just the biggest, but that set pricing markers, were innovative and brave, or made an impression in other ways. Here, we present the winners. Congratulations to all the issuers and banks involved
