FCF regularly engages in comprehensive research on the public European bond market based on publicly available data. The findings are published quarterly in the
FCF CREDIT MONITOR
The FCF Credit Monitor includes the following sectors:
Comprehensive Sector Coverage:- Consumer Discretionary
- Consumer Staples
- Energy
- Healthcare
- Information Technology
- Materials
- Telecommunications
- Utilities
- Yield curves across all rating classes by sector and maturity
- Yield across all sectors by rating class and maturity
- Historical 3-year yield development across all industries and rating classes by maturity
- Detailled sector analysis including:
- Yield curves by rating class and maturity
- Historical 3-year yield developments across all maturities by rating classes
- The FCF Credit Monitor is based on ~850 corporate bonds from around 200 issuers which are meeting the FCF selection criteria (for more details see p. 4 in the FCF Credit Monitor). The total outstanding volume of the selected bond universe sums up to ~EUR 600bn
- The analysis shows the correlation between rating class and yields of corporate bonds
- Especially the yield differences between investment grade and non-investment grade bonds are shown when comparing yields of the “BBB”-rated bonds (lower limit of the investment grade rating) and “BB”-rated bonds (upper limit of the non-investment grade rating): Spreads between yield curves within the investment grade classes are relatively small (ranging between 0.01% to 0.33%), however a significant increase in risk premia is seen for the noninvestment grade rating classes (starting at BB) (0.60% for 1 Years maturities; 2.66% for 8 Years maturities)
