GC Live is a series of editorially led briefings focused on hot market topics, bringing together leading issuers and investors to listen, learn, discuss and debate the most important issues and developments in their markets in an informal and intimate setting.

These briefings* are moderated by GlobalCapital’s team and are off the record**, allowing participants to get to the heart of the matter. Discussions will be fast-paced, focused, on point, and fresh in their approach. Your time is important, so we’ve designed these briefings to be short, allowing you to be back at your desk by lunch.

* For issuer and investor subscribers. Triallists also welcome.

** The first panel is sometimes recorded with permission from all participants and published on GlobalCapital at a later date

Following the success of our GC Live briefing on hybrid capital in February 2024, for this edition we’ll be exploring the issue of capital optimisation more broadly across capital markets, including securitization, and portfolio insurance amid the growing interest from DFIs, and benefit from having established markets among commercial banks.

Corporate hybrid capital ― new needs, new possibilities

Corporate hybrid capital has been a stable asset class for a decade, providing companies with capital that supports their credit metrics without diluting shareholders. However, recent interest rate hikes and rating agencies introducing new methodologies for granting equity credit have significantly altered the market. These changes open new opportunities for issuers, but investors' reception and willingness to provide pricing benefits to new structures remain uncertain.

To discuss these issues GlobalCapital will gather a high-level group of issuers and investors in London, for a briefing about the challenges market participants are dealing with in the hybrid capital market and where the product is heading.

Past briefings
UK Securitization

UK Securitization

UK Securitization

The UK securitization market sits on the precipice of radical change. Brexit has put the UK government in charge of its regulatory destiny, while the 20+ years of blissfully low interest rates is well and truly over. After years of struggling, some would say to exist, market participants in UK securitization finally feel like they have a chance to compete. Old faces are beginning to return to the market while new ones are dipping their toes in the water.

On March 13, 2024 we welcomed a group of issuers and investors for a briefing on UK securitization. Make sure to register your interest for our next upcoming events!

SSA Hybrids – an emerging asset class

The idea of multilateral and national development banks issuing hybrid capital has rocketed to the top of the agenda in the public sector bond market. A few had done so in the past, but none of the high-profile triple-A rated institutions. Now MDBs’ shareholders, national governments, have grasped the idea and are pushing the institutions to explore it. All of them are examining the possibility and many are likely to go forward with transactions.

The big unknown is how they will be priced – more like corporate hybrid debt or bank paper? MDBs could be at the birth of a new asset class.

Uk Bank Capital 2023

Uk Bank Capital 2023

UK Bank Capital

The need for debate and discussion in the FIG market has never been greater, following the collapse of SVB and Credit Suisse. Assumptions around the very structure of banks and their funding are being questioned and confidence in regulations has been hit — all this at a time when capital markets are making the tricky adjustment to central banks withdrawing monetary support and ramping up interest rates.

On December 13, 2023 we welcomed a group of financial and treasury officials at financial institutions, and investors in FIG securities for a breakfast briefing on UK Bank Capital. Make sure to register your interest for our next upcoming events!
