This is not an EM credit crisis, say bankers

Emerging market bankers are pointing to the recent sell off in EM as a minor hiccup rather than a full blown EM credit crisis. The JP Morgan EMBI Global index was off only 30bp by the close of the day in London on Monday evening and the market has stabilised today, leaving syndicate bankers hopeful that the EM issuers roadshowing at the moment will be able to print deals shortly after the finish of their marketing this week.
