Primary Corporate Debt Issuance in Europe

Thesis title: Primary Corporate Debt Issuance in Europe
Author: Galetová, Hana
Thesis type: Diploma thesis
Supervisor: Stádník, Bohumil
Opponents: Málek, Jiří
Thesis language: English
Abstract:
A top-down analysis approach used for over 17 thousand of euro-denominated corporate bond issuances executed in the European primary bond market between 1999 and 2013. The main findings reveal not only the most active corporate issuers in Europe, but they also show the decomposition of issuance by coupon type, rated versus unrated issuance, debut and perpetual issuances, high grade as well as high yield new bond issues split by sector, rating and maturity. I used the opensource statistical package Gretl and applied the ordinary least square technique in order to quantify the association between euro-denominated corporate issuance and credit spreads.
Keywords: high grade; high yield; maturity; primary market; corporate bonds; regression; financial crisis; euro-denominated issuance; credit spreads; rating
