Sub-sections
  • SRI
    Sir Ronald Cohen, one of the UK’s foremost private equity entrepreneurs, believes the Covid-19 crisis is an opportunity to transform western capitalism into a socially responsible enterprise that values a company’s impact on society as much as its profits. Cohen talks to GlobalCapital about the tremendous challenges facing the global economy, and how it can be transformed for the better.
  • ABS
    FICO on Monday released a new scoring tool to help lenders gauge the resilience of consumers in an economic downturn, though sources say it could take up to six months from the end of government support programs before the data can be usable as current data is obscured by a range of debt forbearance policies.
  • CEE
    Just one week after selling $1.25bn of bonds, Belarus’s yield curve has widened as protests hit the country.
  • SRI
    The weakness of communication along the capital markets chain is one reason why so little progress has been made on greening the economy.
  • Popular discontent could well rise in many countries as the coronavirus crisis hits the poorest worst of all. In the past, unrest may have only worried government bond investors to the extent that it damaged creditworthiness. But, as market participants become ever more socially conscious, DBRS Morningstar’s Nichola James says that we can also apply an ESG (environmental, social and governance) lens to it.
  • The United Arab Emirates’ state-owned oil company, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (Adnoc), has raised more than $10bn of investment from a consortium of firms in exchange for a stake in select pipelines. This is the second deal in 12 months in which Adnoc has raised international capital by leasing part of its pipeline network.
