Navigating the capital markets can be very challenging and regulation and deregulation are constantly reshaping the economic landscape. Economic uncertainty continues, both in emerging and developed markets and factors such as globalization, sustainability, protectionism, technology and other changes are significantly disrupting the business environment.
In the rapidly changing economic climate, financing via the capital markets has become more prominent as a cost-effective alternative to traditional debt raising, with issuers now able to obtain more favourable terms from lenders. This brings new opportunities as well as new challenges for market participants.
