Our Debt Capital Markets team recently released a fixed income primer on the Canadian municipal sector.
The publication assesses the recent trends and continued development of the municipal bond market in Canada. It offers an overview of the sector including a discussion on the most common formats of issuance, summary of recent municipal transactions, rating profiles, issuance trends, maturity profiles, secondary trading statistics and relative pricing dynamics. This piece serves as an education for new and existing buyers of the Canadian municipal sector and is also a handy reference for issuers to monitor recent trends in municipal issuance and credit spreads.
