Some bankers say that as the borrower, rated A1/ A2, is on review for possible downgrade by Moody's it should have paid more for its loan, especially as it is a large deal.
  • Swiss pharmaceutical Roche made its bond market debut this week, a day early and inside price guidance, despite being unrated. Lead managers ABN Amro, Citigroup/SSSB and Credit Suisse First Boston decided to price the deal a day ahead of schedule on Monday 3bp inside price guidance at 42bp over mid-swaps. However, the response to the subsequent 20bp secondary performance was mixed, with rival bankers saying the deal had been priced too generously.
