  • SRI
    Deutsche Bank has set up an inter-disciplinary sustainable finance team in its capital markets group, aiming to be “viewed as [a] market leader on this important subject”, as it senses that clients, including big oil and gas companies, are having increasingly to consider environmental and social issues to access the capital markets.
  • SRI
    The pandemic bond issued by the World Bank, which supports a pandemic financing facility for poorer countries, has now met the conditions to pay out, GlobalCapital understands.
  • Reviews of key areas of legislation such as MiFID II, bank capital requirements and Solvency II have been pushed into the future, as the European Commission puts green and digital regulation first.
  • Malaysian oil and gas company Petroliam Nasional (Petronas) made its mark on the dollar bond market on Tuesday, raising $6bn from a deal that received orders of $37bn at its peak. This was despite a ratings outlook change to negative this week and headwinds from the Covid-19 pandemic and volatile oil prices.
  • SRI
    The World Bank’s pandemic bond is still yet to trigger and pay out to support poor countries. This appears to be because of the slowdown in new reported Covid-19 cases in China since February.
  • Adani Transmission has raised a further $90m US private placement, according to market sources, after it became earlier this year the first Indian company to raise debt in the market since 2007.
