In this period of uncertainty, join us to discuss the latest COVID-19 developments and market implications in our weekly series. This week, Karen Ward, Chief Market Strategist for EMEA will provide a market update, and will be joined by Luke Richdale, Head of the Emerging Markets and Asia Pacific (EMAP) Equities Investment Specialist team and Zsolt Papp, Investment Specialist, Emerging Market Debt, GFICC group, for a deep dive into emerging market equities and debt.

The Investment Grade credit markets have behaved more like Junk Bond markets or Emerging Markets during March as investors digested the impact of COVID-19 on major economies and companies. IG Spreads more than tripled from 102bps at the beginning of the year to over 370bps on 20th March and daily moves of 20-50bps became common headlines during the month and Companies rushed to issue a record of $260bn in March ($540bn YTD) in preparation for recession and further disruptions.

What will the impact be on rating drift and downgrades in the Investment Grade universe, which sectors are most susceptible and what should investors be focused on when assessing the medium and long term impact of the recession into company fundamentals? How have IG markets been trading, how difficult has liquidity been to manage and what impact have the credit buying programs from both the Fed and the ECB had into these markets? Finally, where do we see the best relative value opportunities emerging in IG markets?
