Heavy post-holiday high-grade supply eyed; fund, ETF flows hit record
By Cristal Cody
Tupelo, Miss., Sept. 4 – Investment-primary action stayed mostly quiet on Friday following a week of thin deal volume ahead of the Labor Day holiday weekend, sources reported.
UBS Group AG marketed $750 million of perpetual notes with six-year call protection in a Regulation S deal during the day.
More than $4 billion of corporate bonds were priced over the week.
The sovereign, supranational and agency space was busier with $9.5 billion of notes sold this week.
Deals from Johnson Controls International plc, which concluded two days of fixed income investor calls on Wednesday for dollar-denominated 10-year green senior notes (Baa2/BBB+/BBB) and a potential euro-denominated note, and Suzano Austria GMBH, which plans a registered offering of dollar-denominated global notes due in 2031 (/BBB-/BBB-), remain in the pipeline.
Also, Independent Bank Group, Inc. held fixed-income investor calls this week for a possible offering of notes (Kroll: BBB+).
Meanwhile, U.S. high-grade bond fund and ETF inflows hit a record $14.95 billion for the past week ended Wednesday, according to a BofA Securities, Inc. research note released on Friday.
Inflows were up from $8.2 billion in the previous week and above the previous record of $14.88 billion posted for the week ended June 3.
