By Paul A. Harris
Portland, Ore., Oct. 10 In Tuesdays session the Slovak Republic priced a 1 billion issue of 30-year notes.
And Romania priced a 1 billion add-on to its 2 3/8% notes due 2027 (Baa3/BBB-/BBB-) at 102.125 to yield 2.114%.
Demand in the emerging markets remains focused on the new issue market, a trader said.
There is a great deal of cash chasing yield in the asset class, with nearly every new deal being vastly oversubscribed.
Inflows to emerging markets are estimated to be $92.4 billion, year-to-date.
