  • THERE IS an urgent call from Mee No Li, our delicious far-eastern informant and gossip 'deep throat'. Hadn't she told us last week that Stefan Ludwig at Nomura was wobbly on his perch and that his colleague Michael Thoms might be used as ammunition for the Hong Kong noon-day gun? Of course, our girl was absolutely right and it would seem that Ludwig, who was once Simon Fry's right hand, and Thoms have been presented with a pair of cement boots and an introductory swimming lesson in Hong Kong Harbour.

The 25bp monetary easing by the Federal Reserve, which will reduce financing pressures on all emerging market borrowers, provided optimal conditions for the Baa2/BBB- rated sovereign borrower to issue a $200m fungible increase to its $300m 6.5% April 2003 bond launched at the end of March.

The bonds represent a capital increase for the bank, the third largest financial institution in the Benelux, with a capitalisation of around $20bn.

  • * Bayerische Landesbank Girozentrale Rating: Aaa/AAA
  • ABN AMRO Rothschild this week launched the flotation of Magnus Holding, the Dutch high-tech company. The mounting interest in high-tech stocks and the continued recovery in the world's stockmarkets allowed the lead manager to launch the deal in accordance with its previous timetable -- something that rival bankers would have thought impossible just a month ago.
  • MERRILL Lynch has scored a notable coup over competing banks after it was awarded the top advisory role on Old Mutual's London listing. As one of South Africa's oldest and largest insurers, the group has long made clear its intention to list in London. This sparked controversy this year when the government reacted angrily to claims from other corporate groups that they too may leave the Johannesburg SE.
