  • How does a new borrower get established in the ECP market? What are the costs of setting up a programme? How many dealers should there be? How pro-active should the issuer be in marketing its credit and setting price levels? And what are the keys to a successful programme?
  • The changes in the European CP market are creating opportunities and challenges for established issuers and newcomers alike.
  • The market in asset-backed commercial paper, which has grown to a huge size in the US, is still in its infancy in Europe. But the increasing use of the ABCP market by Europe's largest banks, the growing desire among investors for credit products - and the fact that the euro's arrival means that asset pools can be securitised much more easily - should mean that the product finally starts to take off in the European market.
  • Electronic trading of CP and direct issuance by issuers to investors are just two of the latest ideas being bandied about as market participants strive for greater efficiency, transparency and profitability.
  • Anyone who hoped that the dawn of the euro would create at stroke a unified, harmonised pan-European commercial paper market is either a hopeless idealist - or has no idea how national regulators and European bureaucrats work.
  • 'Hedging' in its broadest sense means the reduction of risk by exploiting relationships or correlation between various risky investments.
  • MERRILL Lynch completed the largest bookbuilt offering for an Australian property trust this week with a A$220m placement for General Property Trust (GPT). The sale was increased by 10% on the back of strong demand. The GPT shares were sold at A$2.48 each - a discount of 2.3% to last Thursday's close. The sale of the units underpinned the purchase of property in central Melbourne and was closed within 15 hours of its opening, according to bankers.
  • Australia Warburg Dillon Read has been mandated for the A$80m listing of TV Shopping Network (TVSN). A roadshow is expected to be launched within a fortnight and listing should occur in late July.
  • KOREA Telecom this week boosted the nascent recovery of the Asian equity capital markets with a $2.49bn ADR sale - a record for the region - that continued the success of the Korean privatisation programme. Bankers said the 90.2m ADR issue was five times oversubscribed - despite its pricing at the top end of a revised price range. Rivals were quick to congratulate the US bank on the deal, which has been almost two years in coming.
  • * Market participants in Asia said this week that Bear Stearns was on the verge of launching Japan's first residential mortgage securitisation, for Sanwa Bank. Observers expected SHL 1999-1 Corp to be denominated entirely in yen, and to emerge at the original price talk. The ¥22bn 'A1' note, rated triple-A by Fitch IBCA and Moody's, is set to price at 40bp over three month Libor with a 1.9 year average life.
  • ING Barings and Merrill Lynch will launch an IPO for Sinar Mas spin-off Agri Resources within the next month in a move that could raise up to $400m. Neither bank will comment on the existence of the mandate - or the timing of any deal - but Euroweek has learnt that the banks were recently awarded the lead roles, expected to be completed in early July.
