Since the beginning of the credit crisis in 2007, the European structured credit sector has experienced significant rating migration and actual realised losses stand at 1%, which is higher than most other European structured finance sectors. The investor base has changed considerably, issuance volumes have decreased and new regulations are providing increasing challenges in the near term.
That said; there are some sub-sectors of European structured credit such as SME- and Leveraged Loan CLOs which have performed well over the last four years, in some cases better than expected.
With that in mind Fitch Ratings cordially invites you to its European Structured Credit conference on Thursday 10 November in London where senior Fitch analysts and leading market participants will discuss the ongoing performance of and challenges facing the sector.
Venue : Fitch Ratings offices, 30 North Colonnade, London E14 5GN
