It was the words of Christine Lagarde, the ECB's President, that set markets in motion. Speaking at a hearing in the European Parliament, she spoke about maintaining loose monetary conditions and dispelled fears about the spill-over effects of US inflation in Europe. Cyclical sectors have risen; the winners of the day in the Stoxx600 were vehicle manufacturers, chemical, and materials stocks. Retail companies also did well: the UK-based Morrisons food chain skyrocketed 35% after rejecting a GBP 5.5bn takeover bid from Clayton, Dubilier & Rice. Their rivals also jumped: Tesco advanced 1.7%, and Sainbury’s surged 3.8%. The Stoxx600 Health Sector Index stagnated, even though CureVac plummeted more than 10% on suspicion of insider trading; last week, the biopharmaceutical's stock price of fell as clinical trials pointed to low efficacy of its covid vaccine.

  • Phillips Edison & Company Closes on $980 Million Unsecured Credit Facility
    Phillips Edison & Company Closes on $980 Million Unsecured Credit Facility July 2, 2021 New term loans and revolving credit facility lower interest rate and extend maturity CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Phillips Edison & Company, Inc. (“PECO”), an internally-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and one of the nation’s largest owners and operators of omni-channel grocery-anchored neighborhood shopping centers, announced it has refinanced one of its term loans and secured a new revolving credit facility. On July 2, 2021, PECO closed a new $980 million senior unsecured credit facility (the “Facility”) led by PNC Bank, National Association as Administrative Agent. The Facility is comprised of a $500 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) and two separate $240 million unsecured variable rate term loans (the “Term Loans”). Proceeds from the Term Loans are being used to repay an existing term loan at a reduced interest rate. The first $240 million term loan has a maturity in November 2025, and the second $240 million term loan has a maturity in July 2026. Borrowings will bear interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 125 basis points, subject to the continuation of PECO’s covenant leverage, which rate is 40 basis points lower than the refinanced term loan that had a maturity of November 2025. The Revolver has a maturity in January 2026, with options for PECO to extend the maturity for two additional six-month periods, replacing the previous revolving credit facility which had a maturity of October 2021. Borrowings under the Revolver will bear interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 135 basis points, subject to the continuation of PECO’s covenant leverage, which rate is five basis points lower than the previous revolving credit facility.

We use least square Monte Carlo simulation (LSM) by Longstaff and Schwartz (2001) with a focus on plain vanilla convertible bonds. The results show that there exist pricing differences between constant interest rate model and stochastic interest rate models. The results are statistically and economically significant for convertible bonds that have long maturity or out of the money. Results are also significant when the current interest rate deviate a lot from its long-term mean. For other situations, however, the pricing differences are only statistically significant but economically minor. “How does customer credit quality affect supplier firms’ bank loan contract terms?” Honours Thesis, Supervisor: Associate Prof. Eliza Wu, deputy head of discipline research Abstract: This study investigates whether customer firms’ credit quality impact on supplier firms’ bank loan contract terms.
