Definition: Euro Commercial Paper can mean a number of things.
Like in Eurobonds, in capital market data analysis CMDportal often uses the characteristic that the ISIN starts with specific two letters to define a market as follows:
- XS for International or Euro-Commercial Paper, which can either be Euro, Foreign or Global CP and
- not XS for Commercial Paper that is Domestic Commercial Paper, such as DE for German Domestic Commercial Paper, FR for French Domestic Commercial Paper also known as NEUCP, etc.
Subscribing CMDportal users can filter for Commercial Paper by Market typing these first two letters in the ISIN filter or by using the Market filter as provided by most tools on the portal.
Based on available data, on the 18th March 2020, the size of the vanilla Euro Commercial Paper, as in the one above, in multiple currencies was over USD1,025bn.
