Crédit Agricole Italia’s eight year covered bond has the highest BondMarker average score of any deal issued so far this month. The transaction is closely followed by deals from Banco BPI and BPER Banka. Intesa Sanpaolo is leading among the six Italian covered bonds issued this year, but the survey is still open and some marks could yet improve.
