Asian Debt Capital Markets

From the Collaborative Bond and Money Market Data Portal

 

In the Collaborative Bond and Money Market Data Model, the Asian Debt Capital Markets, exclude Middle East, Australia and New Zealand. Asian DCM is not a single market; it comprises issuers from Asia as well as non-Asian issuers targeting this market with various "named" bond products. Non-Japanese issuers can sell bonds into Japan in primary Samurai or secondary Uridashi offering. Uridashi bonds are sold to Japanese "Watanabe" retail investors under foreign law. They are typically not denominated in Yen and issued in a currency with a higher yield than JPY. A Samurai is a Yen-denominated bond issued by non-Japanese issuers in Japan. A Formosa bond is issued in Taiwan but denominated in a currency other than the New Taiwan Dollar, while Sukuk bonds are structured to comply with Islamic Sharia Law. Panda bonds are Chinese RMB denominated bonds from a non-Chinese issuer sold in China and Dim-Sum bonds are CNH-denominated bonds sold outside China.
