KBRA Analytics Releases 12 Things in Credit Monthly Recap: April 2021

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA Analytics releases topical and timely commentary on credit markets, compiled from our weekly podcast, 3 Things in Credit, hosted by our Chief Strategist, Van Hesser. Among the wide-ranging issues Van has addressed over the past month are big government’s effect on default rates, economic slack versus inflation expectations, and off-the-run sectors drawing attention from yield-starved investors.

The pandemic has dramatically reset the global economic and markets landscape as massive government intervention and fluid developments on the scientific front meet extreme valuations in markets. Each week, we dig into and provide perspective on issues credit-market participants care about. Tune in every Friday to Van’s podcast for the latest. And look for our monthly published recap to catch up on what you might have missed.
