Nordic HY Bond Market Expands Impressively in H1 2024

Pareto Securities, an international investment bank based in Oslo, has published its H1 2024 newsletter on the Nordic High-Yield (HY) Bond market. The total issuance volume reached EUR 8.2bn, evidencing another record high. This represents a 64% increase from the same period last year and highlights the market's strong appeal.

A significant portion of the Nordic HY bond volume, around 40%, was generated by issuers outside the Nordic countries, particularly from Germany. In fact, the number of transactions by German companies in the first half of 2024 already matches the total from 2023, showcasing the market's attractiveness to international investors.

Pareto Securities played a pivotal role in this growth, facilitating EUR 2.9bn in total bond issuances and securing a 30% market share. The firm was involved in all German transactions issued under Nordic Bond documentation, supporting companies like Karlsberg Brauerei and The Platform Group in their financing endeavors.
