Issuers Section 1
3Growth of Yen Markets for International Issuers
- The following dynamics continue to increase
interest among Japanese investors to look for new
quality investment opportunities, allowing the
yen markets for international issuers to grow - Continuation of low interest rates in Japan vs
other major currencies - Investors need to look for spread products
- Absolute yield could be attractive to issuers
- Supply of domestic corporate bonds are stable,
and the spreads remain tight - Since mid 2007, spread levels available in
international markets have become extremely
attractive from the domestic investors viewpoint
(while still being attractive to issuers) - With most of the above conditions expected to be
sustained well into 2008 or even 2009, we expect
a continued growth of the Yen markets for
international issuers - So far, strong concentration in Financial names ?
Interest to see non financial names/ credits - Samurai Bonds (Domestic Bonds) vs Euro-yen Bonds
(International Bonds) - Many Japanese pension funds and regional
financial institutions can still only buy
domestic bonds (Samurai format is domestic) but
not International Bonds (Even in Yen, Euro-yen /
Global-Yen bonds are treated as international
bonds)

Few houses crop up in virtually every
conversation regarding bonds, no matter where in
the world it is held or what asset class is under
discussion. Deutsche Bank is one of those few,
boosting a stunning breadth of business
stretching from high-grade to high yield and
mainstream to emerging currencies... In a
volatile year, Deutsche Bank identified trends
early and assisted clients across a range of
structures with no currency bias It is also
notable that Deutsche was first bank issuer to
return to market after the dislocation of the
summer, when confidence was at its nadir The
bank played a key role in reopening the primary
market in the midst of the global liquidity
crisis.
