Corporate hybrid capital has been a stable asset class for a decade, providing companies with capital that supports their credit metrics without diluting shareholders. However, recent interest rate hikes and rating agencies introducing new methodologies for granting equity credit have significantly altered the market. These changes open new opportunities for issuers, but investors' reception and willingness to provide pricing benefits to new structures remain uncertain.

To discuss these issues GlobalCapital will gather a high-level group of issuers and investors in London, for a briefing about the challenges market participants are dealing with in the hybrid capital market and where the product is heading.

After years of struggling, some would say to exist, market participants in UK securitization finally feel like they have a chance to compete. Old faces are beginning to return to the market while new ones are dipping their toes in the water.

The idea of multilateral and national development banks issuing hybrid capital has rocketed to the top of the agenda in the public sector bond market. A few had done so in the past, but none of the high-profile triple-A rated institutions. Now MDBs’ shareholders, national governments, have grasped the idea and are pushing the institutions to explore it. All of them are examining the possibility and many are likely to go forward with transactions.

The big unknown is how they will be priced – more like corporate hybrid debt or bank paper? MDBs could be at the birth of a new asset class.

The need for debate and discussion in the FIG market has never been greater, following the collapse of SVB and Credit Suisse. Assumptions around the very structure of banks and their funding are being questioned and confidence in regulations has been hit — all this at a time when capital markets are making the tricky adjustment to central banks withdrawing monetary support and ramping up interest rates.
