Sub-sections
  • Kookmin Bank has priced its debut euro covered bond flat to where its higher rated compatriot, Korea Housing Finance Corporation (KHFC) would have been expected to come. The deal was said to have attracted additional demand due to its social theme, spurring hopes that further similar issuance would follow.
  • CEE
    Central and Eastern European commercial real estate operator NEPI Rockcastle issued a green bond on Tuesday, attracting new investors to its debt.
  • The Shanghai Clearing House’s decision to give bond issuers insight into the holders of their debt is a smart move. China has enough regulation; what it lacks is information.
  • Some parts of the market are talking about the benefits of ultra-short, money market debt that has a sustainability theme, while on Tuesday BBVA issued a perpetual green bond, albeit with a call. The viability of both these forms of debt shows that the common perception of green bonds is not quite true.
  • Klaveness Combination Carriers, a Norwegian shipping company, has signed what it claims to be the first sustainability-linked bank loan for the sector in Norway, as the outlook remains gloomy for global shipping.
  • BBVA became the first financial institution to issue green debt in additional tier one (AT1) format on Tuesday, launching a bond with a 6% coupon. The Spanish lender left no premium on the table, according to some market participants.
