Growing leveraged finance liquidity risks are harbinger for private credit
More on the Russia-Ukraine crisis
16 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

US high-yield bond and loan issuance has fallen sharply since Russia’s invasion
of Ukraine, as investors turn more risk averse. While private credit lenders
have an increasingly important funding role for leveraged middle market
companies, the relationship with their private equity-backed portfolio companies
is less transparent. Better terms among private credit lenders can also mask
underlying risk.


New risks from Ukraine conflict put emerging market banks on divergent paths
More on the Russia-Ukraine crisis
17 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has created new stresses for emerging market banks
just as economic conditions were starting to recover post-pandemic. Some banking
sectors will be harder hit than others.


Infographic: Ukraine conflict escalation would heighten risks for emerging
market nonfinancial companies
More on the Russia-Ukraine crisis
16 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

Almost a quarter of emerging market companies’ credit quality would be at risk
if the Russia-Ukraine conflict escalated, with consumer sectors most exposed and
commodity producers set to benefit.


Corporate default rate poised to climb modestly after declining in April
16 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

Four Moody's-rated corporate debt issuers globally defaulted in April, down from
eight in March, and the trailing 12-month global speculative-grade default rate
edged down to 1.9% from 2.1%. Our Credit Transition Model projects a modest rise
in the default rate over the next year but risks are increasing as a result of
inflationary pressures and the pace of monetary tightening.


Podcast: US health insurers tackle mental health; Asian insurers under revised
capital rules
Moody's Talks - Focus on Finance
18 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

As mental health and substance abuse problems grow sharply in the US, insurance
analyst Dean Ungar explains how US health insurers are trying to break down the
wall between medical health and mental health and better integrate the latter
into their operations. Also in this episode, insurance analysts Frank Yuen,
Soichiro Makimoto and Qian Zhu discuss updates to capital regimes in
Asia-Pacific, and what it means for insurers in Hong Kong, SAR, Japan and
mainland China.


Video: Natural capital is increasingly relevant to global financial system
23 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

Our ESG team looks at how nature is declining faster than at any time in human
history – increasing pressure on natural capital resources and raising important
credit risk implications globally for governments, companies and financial
institutions.


Cryptocurrency adoption highest among lower-rated sovereigns, adding to their
macro risks
18 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

While increased usage of cryptocurrencies can facilitate faster transactions for
households and increase financial inclusion, it also entails significant risks
for emerging markets in particular. These include operational risks (cyber and
fraud), reduced government control over monitoring the financial system and
increased ability to circumvent capital controls.

Podcast: Lengthy Russia-Ukraine crisis will harm some sectors; telecoms boost 5G
investment
Moody's Talks - Behind the Bonds
17 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

In this episode of Moody’s Talks – Behind the Bonds, Emile El Nems of the
Corporates team joins host Jeff Pruzan to bring us up to date on how Russia’s
ongoing invasion of Ukraine is affecting corporate credit quality worldwide. And
Carlos Winzer of the Telecoms team explains why 5G investment will be an
evolution rather than a revolution for the sector.


Podcast: Africa, Middle East at heightened risk of social unrest; Turkey’s
inflation soars
11 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

In this episode of Moody’s Talks – Emerging Markets Decoded, Aurelien Mali and
Kathrin Muehlbronner of the Sovereign team join host Shirin Mohammadi to discuss
the sociopolitical ramifications of the Russia-Ukraine crisis for the Middle
East and Africa by drawing lessons from a similar global food and energy price
shock in 2008. Plus, they discuss how the conflict is exacerbating an already
precarious situation in Turkey.


Podcast: Inflation risks rising for financial institutions
Moody's Talks - Focus on Finance Podcast
04 May 2022|Moody's Investors Service

Financial Institutions team analysts Allen Tischler and Jasper Cooper talk about
the effects of higher inflation on global banks, insurance companies and asset
managers, and explain why the negatives outweigh the positives.
