Barclays, HSBC go for size in chunky Yankee week

摘要

Better sentiment helped barclays plc, hsbc holdings and skandinaviska enskilda banken raise decent chunks of US dollar funding in what was the second largest week for European Yankee financials issuance in 2018. European banks are traditionally big users of the US dollar market, but a weaker backdrop and ructions at the short end of the curve meant that until last week's spree, volumes were running some 26% below last year's run rate at US$37.7bn.
