Awards for Excellence 2013

Best Emerging markets debt house: HSBC

Also shortlisted: Citi and Goldman Sachs

Between April 2012 and March 2013, bond issuance from the emerging markets surpassed the trillion-dollar level, reaching $1.29 trillion. That compares with an already large $977 billion in the previous 12 months.

HSBC stayed well ahead in the league tables. According to Dealogic, the bank’s share of emerging market issuance was almost a full percentage point ahead of Citi’s, while Citi’s lead over the number three, JPMorgan, was only 20 basis points.
