The International Association of Credit Portfolio Managers has released findings from its annual survey on risk sharing transactions executed by banks through synthetic on balance-sheet securitizations. The survey found that investment funds remain the dominant sellers of credit protection but lost some market share at the benefit of pension funds (investors in junior/first loss tranches) and mainly unfunded credit risk insurers (investors in mezzanine/upper tranches) which showed increased appetite over the last two years. #SRT https://lnkd.in/ekvhU6HT

Last week, Moody's Ratings affirmed the ALCB Fund's long-term issuer rating at Baa1, with a stable outlook. Credit ratings are a fundamental part of debt capital markets, providing investors an external credit benchmark for which to make investment decisions and price transactions. This is why the ALCB Fund encourages local issuers to get one, and has provided some with the technical assistance required to support this exercise. Since inception, 24 of the ALCB Fund's issuers have undergone a rating. The Fund itself has been rated since 2019 and was upgraded in 2023 from Baa2 to Baa1. https://lnkd.in/eh4V--M3
