High Yield and the Emerging Markets: Are the Markets Converging or Increasingly Distinct?
- To what extent are high yield methodologies influencing how emerging markets debt deals are done?
- What emerging markets have adopted high yield-style covenant packages and are we witnessing EM and HY covenant convergence or case by case cross-over? Do we need a new and more standardised paradigm for emerging markets bond covenants?
- To what extent are LBOs in emerging markets borrowing from European leveraged finance techniques and structures?
- How are disclosure standards in emerging markets deals developing? Has the market really thought through what procedures and standards they feel ought to apply in Reg S only deals?
- The investor perspective: Are emerging markets and high yield investor bases increasingly converging? What's their perspective on HY versus EM credit analysis?
