Australian Bank Issuers Roundtable (August 2025)

While Australia is not immune to the geopolitical uncertainties caused by conflicts and trade tensions, the country’s strong services sector and natural resource base act as buffers against volatility. This puts Australia banks in an enviable position in terms of raising capital internationally. In June, GlobalCapital assembled a panel of treasury officials and DCM bankers to discuss the opportunities available to the sector.
