  • How does a major player such as Barclays Capital operate its ECP business? How do sales, trading, syndicate and origination function together? And how does the firm try to keep a step ahead in a business where time is of the essence and where being the first to spot opportunities - and relay them to customers - is vital?
  • Competition among ECP dealers is intensifying once again, threatening to erode still further margins in a business where they have never been exactly lucrative.
  • The Euro-commercial paper market is on a roll. The arrival of the euro has provided the trigger for major growth in the base of issuers, investors and intermediaries in Europe's money markets.
  • 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.
