Key Takeaways
- Asia credit market expected to move sideways in 2H26 with JACI spreads below 90bp since April, reflecting regional resilience after geopolitical shocks earlier in the year.
- CITIC Bank International announced redemption of its US$600mn 3.25% AT1 at the first optional call date (July 29), contributing to a US$3.3bn decline in Asia's AT1 market year-to-date.
- China's SAMR released a consultation draft to regulate food delivery platform subsidies, prohibiting anti-competitive subsidy practices and forced merchant participation.
- Competition among Meituan, Alibaba, and JD in food delivery remains intense despite new regulations, as Alibaba aims to build a structural presence in the market.
- Continuum Green's RG bonds (CGRNEG '33s) upgraded to Overweight from Underweight, as strategic investments from Chubu Electric and Just Climate drive de-leveraging and improved governance.
- Investment grade issuers may face headwinds from rising Treasury yields, but spread compression may partially offset this in 2H26.
