A successful 15th edition of our Annual Global High Yield and Leveraged Finance conference

This year’s strong line-up of 23 issuers from Europe and the US, representing a wide cross-section of sectors, was reflected by significant interest from the global investor community - around 400 attendees connected from all over the world.

We hosted a series of topical panels moderated by our bankers, to discuss the dynamics and expected developments in the leveraged debt markets in Europe and the US including latest ESG developments:

• Credit Market Outlook: much to navigate
• The Credit Landscape Two Years into the Pandemic: The Rating Agency View
• Leveraged Loans and Investor Panorama
• High Yield Investor Panel
• Private Equity Sponsor Panel
• ESG panel - Beyond Green

The panelists included leading representatives from issuer clients, the buyside investor community, private equity, rating agencies, lawyers, credit strategists and economists. The guest speaker was Rt Hon Rory Stewart OBE, former British cabinet minister diplomat, academic and author.

"This was once again a landmark event, sending a further strong signal to the market regarding Crédit Agricole CIB's continuing strategic commitment to the leveraged finance business.”

Antonio Cosma, Global Head of Leveraged and Telecom Finance

“The feedback we have received from participants has been extremely positive, and this annual conference continues to be one of the leading events of its type in Europe, bringing together key issuer and investor clients from all over the world."

Youssef Khlat, Global Head of High Yield and Deputy Global Head, Leveraged Finance

We thank all our panelists, issuer and investor clients, partners and colleagues for connecting and we hope to see you in person next year!
