Corporate bond week ahead: investor demand ensures roadshow calendar refills

Corporate bond issuance volume in Europe this week was lighter than previous weeks. However, there were still seven issuers that priced deals. The main difference this week was the size of deals. Nestlé’s €850m eight year transaction was the largest one to print, but most order books were still at least twice oversubscribed as investors showed little sign of slowing down for the summer.
