FIG Polls and Awards

The various constituencies of the covered bond market voted quite differently this year and in some cases the final winning margins were close. See how the market voted for this year’s awards.

The Cover’s 10th annual covered bond awards took place this year at the Rheinterrace in Düsseldorf on Thursday, September 15.

GlobalCapital is delighted to announce the winners of The Cover Awards 2016 to mark the successes of those in the covered bond market over the last year.

China has become the biggest and arguably the most important capital market in Asia. The size and scope of transactions combined with the fast pace of reform is influencing capital markets well outside the country’s borders. In our first China Deals and Investment Bank of the Year Awards, we select the standout transactions and institutions. Our thanks to all those firms that took the time to pitch. Full write-ups of each award will be published in the next Asiamoney supplement in late March.

The GlobalCapital editorial team has picked what it believes to be the standout bond issues of 2015 across the financial institutions, public sector, emerging markets and corporate bond markets. We selected the trades that we think will be remembered for their success in challenging conditions, for making the best use of the demand available to them, or for having made a longer lasting impact, such as the re-opening of a market. The FIG Deals of the Year 2015 winners are presented here.

For the third part of our annual awards, we cover Best Local Currency Bond, Best Securitization, Best High Yield Bond, Best Investment Grade Corporate Bond, Best Financial Bond, Best Sovereign Bond, Best Local Currency Bond House and Best G3 Bond House.
