  • Crédit Lyonnais chairman Jean Peyrelevade sent the French bank's share price plunging this week when he reiterated his view that the French state should sell its 9.5% stake in the bank. The share price sank 12% between Monday and Wednesday following a radio interview Peyrelevade gave over the weekend. In it he explained that the government should sell its entire stake so as to give the bank an opportunity to pursue possible alliances independently.
  • The National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) has fined Citigroup/SSB $5m for publishing tainted and misleading research reports written by Jack Grubman, the disgraced former equity analyst, on Winstar Communications, the US telecoms company. The investigation by NASD shows that while publicly recommending Winstar's stock, Grubman and his assistant Christine Gochuico privately held very different views.

  • New issues from Electricité de France (EdF), Lafarge and Parmalat were pulled this week, as investor sentiment turned against the corporate market. Last week was the sterling market's most buoyant for two months, with £1.35bn of new corporate bonds. But weak equity markets and renewed credit market volatility made conditions too expensive for corporates planning new issues this week.
  • The Development Bank of Kazakhstan should price its debut international bond today (Friday) with strong demand from lead investors. Sole lead manager UBS Warburg closed books on the $100m five year issue yesterday (Thursday) with the transaction several times oversubscribed. Price talk is centred on a yield of 7.25%-7.5%.
  • The Development Bank of Kazakhstan (DBK) is believed to be putting the final touches to the Central Asian republic's first EuroMTN programme. The $500m facility has not yet been finalised, but it is likely that UBS Warburg will be the arranger. The bank is expected to make its first issue off the programme within the next week: a $100m three to five year deal that will be denominated in either dollars or euros and will be lead managed by UBS Warburg.
  • The mandate to arrange the Eu40m four year facility for Erste & Steiermarkische Bank has been awarded to Erste Bank and Standard Bank. The deal pays a margin of 90bp over Libor for years one to three and 105bp for year four. It will be launched into syndication in early October.
  • Poor Lukas Mühlemann. Just as it seemed that his luck might hold out, he did a Humpty Dumpty and fell off the wall. Who pushed him? We suspect that it was none other than the caring hand of Mr Rainer Gut, whose protégé Lukie had been. Of course Mühlemann's fall came as no surprise, because the bookmakers had taken a mountain of money that he would have been shown a red card in the early summer.
