It was just a fortnight ago that we reported on what could turn out to be a swathe of job losses in the equity capital markets. But all is not lost; not only are some companies readying initial public offerings to give ECM bankers something to do, for those still left wondering if they’re facing the chop next, there is a hiring spree afoot elsewhere in the capital markets. We tell you where that is and what you can expect to be paid.

That hiring spree, like everything else in the capital markets, has been driven by what central banks are up to and the effect that has on bond issuance. We saw that influence manifest in other parts of the bond market this week too and we discuss whether the differing speeds of central bank monetary policy change will make this a year one of short lived opportunities for cheap funding in different markets. We discuss what borrowers will benefit from that and what they will need to do to take advantage.

Finally we highlight a growing trend in private lending — net asset value loans made to private equity funds. It’s an old technique so why is it having such a resurgence? Subscribe to the GlobalCapital podcast at wherever you get yours from to find out.
