Fixed Income Investors Survey incorporating 'Best Borrowers & Fixed Income Research'
Euromoney combined its Fixed income research survey with a Best borrowers survey asking investors to nominate the Best fixed income issuers globally and across a range of sectors and borrower types that matched categories in the research survey. The survey is therefore in two parts: Best fixed income research house and Best borrower.

Interviews with the front-runners in this year's Euromoney credit poll indicate a market in flux and efforts on the part of credit research teams to adapt to this. At a time when equity activity is subdued, the credit market stands out as lively but also highly volatile throughout the rating spectrum. This means that the top firms are doing their best to find new ways of presenting research to their varied customer base. Timeliness, focus and independence in their reports are crucial but they must produce this with staffing levels that are generally substantially lower than those of their equity colleagues.
