KBRA Releases Research – The Forward Look—European and UK Credit Views: Q4 2025

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA releases the latest quarterly report highlighting our European Macro Strategist Gordon Kerr’s view on key economic indicators, as well as what he identifies as the most influential factors driving credit markets in the upcoming quarter. The report also examines credit market valuations in the context of current and future market conditions.

KBRA expects key factors driving credit market conditions in Q4 to include credit tailwinds still slow to develop in Europe, despite a supportive market environment for European credit. Headwinds facing the market include unresolved budgetary considerations in the UK and France, which are holding back investment. In addition, signs of still sticky inflation remain a consideration for the months ahead as investor interest turns to 2026.
