Report Summary
JPMorgan expects continued stability for Asia credit markets in 2H26 following a resilience test from Middle East geopolitical shocks, with carry opportunities prevailing and select alpha in oversold segments. The report also covers CITIC Bank International's AT1 redemption, new Chinese food delivery platform regulations, and upgrades Continuum Green's RG bonds to Overweight on strategic equity investments.
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.
