Summary of Global Capital Markets Update (18 May 2025)

As of 5/19/25, global debt issuance volumes saw a significant decline of 24% year-over-year for the week, continuing from a ~11% YoY drop year-to-date. Corporate high yield issuance saw a substantial surge (136% YoY), while leveraged loans fell by 92%. US investment-grade corporate issuance rose 19% YoY amid a muted global corporate finance environment. ESG fund formation declined significantly (-59% YoY), though ESG ETF assets grew at a more sustainable pace (+27% YoY). Exchange-traded derivative volumes tied to S&P and MSCI indices recovered modestly, with SPGI-linked volumes growing 24% YoY amid signs of broadening investor activity toward ESG and thematic ETFs.

Key Insights:

• Debt Markets: Investor preference shifted toward lower-grade corporate paper (high yield up 136%, leveraged loans down 92%) despite broad market contraction.
• ETF & ESG: S&P and MSCI index-linked ETF AUM grew steadily (+20% YoY), partly driven by ESG-related assets (+7% YoY). ESG fund formation fared worse amid valuation concerns.
• Derivatives: S&P-linked ETD volumes rose 24% YoY, tied to both broad market and sustainable investing narratives.
• Fund Activity: New fund inflows remained modest globally, with ESG and sustainability-focused products gaining traction in institutional channels.

Latest data points reflect a seasonally mixed but ultimately cautious market, with risks increasingly priced into riskier segments of the global credit cycle.
