EMERGING MARKET BOND
ISSUANCE HITS RECORD IN ;
?
;merging market borrowers issued a record volume of bonds
denominated in hard currency during =E>I, sei8ing the opportunity of
ultra-low interest rates.
?
-ccording to !euters, total issuance from emerging market borrowers,
both sovereign & corporate amounted to nearly KI?E bn in =E>I across
CI= deals compared with KIFG bn in =E>F.
?
The bulk of issuance this year came from co9s which sold KF+C bn of
bonds across +IC transactions, while sovereign borrowers issued K>E+ bn
across C= deals.
?
hina was the biggest source of hard currency issuance this year
accounting for K>E> bn of bonds across >FC deals, followed by 'ra8il
with K II bn & I, issues & *exico KF+ bn.
?
The L& 1ederal !eserve expected to start to raise rates at some point in the
coming year, the cost f servicing dollar debt is expected to become more
expensive and therefore less attractive for borrowers.
?
0avid "auner head of fixe income & ;conomics fro emerging ;urope of
'21-*6 expects dollar-denominated sovereign issuance to fall by around a
7uartet next year.
?
The drop in sovereign issuance will be partly countered by relatively robust
corporate issuance, estimated at around KF,E bn.
?
!egis hatellier of &24;. is of the view that with the ;uropean central bank
now scoping out its first full- scale 7uantitative easing programme the euro will be
the obvious choice.
?
&24;. estimates that IE M of emerging market sovereign debt is going to be
issued in ;uros next year & that will be up from =C M this year.
?
;merging countries are already issuing debt in ;uro, with 1;0 moving towards
tighter monetary policy the ;' will move in opposite direction to keep the cost
of ;uro debt cheaper to service.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RECURRING 5
FI8ED DEPOSITS
?
*ost people rely on bank deposits for their savings & investments.
?
'ut many gets confused between recurring & fixed deposits.
?
!0 & 10 have same features regarding safety, maturity, interest
rate even the tax payable on these accounts.
The difference is in the nature of tax deduction:
?
#n 10, banks deduct T0& if he interest income in a year exceeds
!s. >EEEE but there is no T0& deduction in recurring deposit.
?
#n comparison 10 tends to give higher returns.
?
1ixed deposits are better for someone who has lump sum amount & may not
need for a period of time.
?
#nterest rate depends on the maturity period, longer the period greater the
interest rate.
?
The T0& is applicable on maturity amount.
?
#f the interest paid on the deposits exceeds !s.>E,EEE per year then T0& is
deducted.
?
#f the investor does not have lump sum amount & is looking for monthly
savings then recurring deposits are useful.
?
#nterest rate depends upon the maturity period , longer the period greater the
interest rates.
?
There is no T0& applicable on !0.

falling interest rates.
?
Pa+&/a. (/:#+$/'. /n&% G%( :- #f there is a crisis around the
globe, the first investment that rallies is gold. Therefore, the best
strategy would be to invest partially in gold.

C%$&. R#a E$&a&# &% *% n%01#+# :- #nvestment in real estate
would depend on strategy in every state, so study the market well
before investing in real estate.
