  • Buying back: mainstay of new hybrid deals
    Recent releveraging and M&A by insurance companies shows how far the industry has come in the past three years.

  • Cometh the hour, cometh the hybrid
    Financial institutions are issuing record amounts of hybrid securities.

  • Moody's in charge until Solvency 2
    Insurance companies are living in limbo ahead of the introduction of Solvency 2, having to second guess what the final regulations will look like by looking at bank tier one structures.
