Sub-sections
  • Equity markets opened on a high on the first day of trading in 2021 and there are hopes that positive macro headwinds will provide strong momentum for equity capital markets deals. This is despite the Covid-19 pandemic still causing concern as cases rise and governments introduce tough restrictions to fight it.
