DUBAI: Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, the Public Investment Fund (PIF), has hired banks including Citi and JPMorgan to arrange a debut issuance of multi-tranche U.S. dollar-denominated green bonds, a document showed on Tuesday. Sources told Reuters earlier this month that PIF would issue the long-planned green bonds this month or in October. BNP Paribas, Citi, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan, mandated as joint global coordinators and active bookrunners, will organise investor calls starting on Tuesday. A debut issuance in tranches of five, 10 and potentially a longer-dated tenor will follow, subject to market conditions. The issuance will be under GACI First Investment Company and guaranteed by PIF. PIF has $608 billion in assets under management, according to an investor presentation seen by Reuters, not including the February transfer of a 4% stake in oil giant Aramco to the fund. “PIF is acting as the key vehicle to achieve KSA (the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) green aspirations,” the presentation said, referring to an ambitious economic reform agenda to wean the economy off oil.
Hi. Aaron Weinman here. Performance reviews are back. Hiring has slowed. And Wall Street''s most influential chief executives from Goldman Sachs'' David Solomon to JPMorgan''s Jamie Dimon are ready to cull under-performing staff. It''s a shift from this time last year, when junior bankers scored significant pay bumps, dealmaking reached record-breaking highs, and investment bankers prepared themselves for some of the chunkiest bonuses they''d ever received. Per this story from Bloomberg, however, the layoffs should not be as severe as what Wall Street experienced after market crashes in 1987 and 2008. According to insiders, most of the cuts should be limited to underperformers in investment banking, who are really feeling the pinch of weak deal flow in equity capital markets and advisory services. As Insider has previously reported , mortgage-lending units are also exposed to job cuts. Before we get into that, however, it''s also time for our Banker of the Week !

Citigroup Inc. is targeting India as one of its top markets to expand in globally as risks mount in China and other regions, the bank’s global co-head of investment banking said.India presents “very clear” opportunities, said Manolo Falco, the global co-head of Banking, Capital markets and Advisory, in an interview in Mumbai. The New York-based lender expects initial public offerings in India to pick up next year as well as inbound deals in renewable energy and infrastructure, he said.The world’s second-most populous country is gaining traction among Wall Street dealmakers in part as growing political tension casts a pall over major plans to expand in China and as tensions mount in Europe and the US. India’s main stock gauge has gained this year, in contrast to mostly steep declines seen in major global markets. The nation saw a record $82 billion in merger and acquisition deals in the second quarter, defying a slump elsewhere.“India looks very steady and it has a government that seems to know exactly what they have to do,” Falco said. “The political situation in other parts of the world, and that includes Europe and probably the US and China, is a bit different I would say.”After two years of expansion in China, global banks are now facing stronger headwinds as economic growth slows and political tension with the US has dented dealmaking.

SHANGHAI: China stocks on Wednesday tracked a slump in global markets, after hotter-than-expected US inflation data fuelled bets for more aggressive rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. ** The blue-chip CSI 300 Index lost 1.2% by the end of the morning session, while the Shanghai Composite Index was down 1%. ** The Hang Seng Index tumbled 2.6%, and the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index dropped 2.5%. ** Other Asian shares tumbled after Wall Street saw its steepest fall in two years, as US CPI data for August dashed hopes for a peak in inflation. ** US Labor Department data showed the headline Consumer Price Index gained 0.1% on a monthly basis versus expectations for a 0.1% decline. ** “The overnight plunge in the US market dented sentiment in China’s A-shares,” said Wang Mengying, a stock index futures analyst at Nanhua Futures, adding that investors will continue to focus on domestic COVID-19 outbreaks and anti-virus measures, and the implementation of pro-growth policies. ** New energy shares slumped 2.2%, automobiles went down 2%, while shares in healthcare and consumer discretionary lost 1.2% and 1.6%, respectively.

"There Is No Good News Across This Report" - A Shocked Wall Street Reacts To Today''s Scorching CPI Print As we noted in our preview last night , so confident was Wall Street that today''s CPI print would be a miss - driven ostensibly by a plunge in energy prices - that the Y/Y whisper dropped as low as mid/sub 7%, with Goldman saying the " Headline number most likely shows some disinflation and wont impact mkt meaningfully after tape’s recent run higher, unless shockingly cool…call it sub 7%...then keep your rally caps on " and JPM piling on that " a 7-handle CPI YoY we would likely to see a strong rally tomorrow. " In retrospect, pretty much everyone was wrong, with headline CPI coming in at a "shocking", red hot 8.3%... ... a number which 47 of 50 economists missed, and which just BMO (and two other smallish banks, SMBC Nikko and Berliner Sparkasse) predicted correctly: BMO 8.3% HSBC 8.2% BofA 8.2% ING 8.2% JPMorgan 8.1% Soc Gen 8.1% Citi 8% Goldman 8% TD 8% BNP 8% Jefferies 8% Standard Chartered 8% Stifel 8% Nomura 8% Wells Fargo 7.9% Credit Suisse 7.9% Morgan Stanley 7.9% Where did the surprises come from?
UK’s FTSE 100 ticked lower in choppy trading on Tuesday as bank stocks fell, while data showed a drop in jobless rate and rising wages that could pile more pressure on the Bank of England looking to rein in surging inflation. Investors also awaited crucial inflation figures from the United States ahead of the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting next week. The blue-chip FTSE 100 index eased 0.1% at 7:15 GMT, with HSBC Holdings and Lloyds Group among the worst performers. Rate-sensitive banks fell 0.8%, snapping a three-day rally. Data on Tuesday showed Britain’s unemployment rate fell to its lowest since 1974 at 3.6% in the three months to July as more people left the labour market, while wages picked up pace adding to signs of price pressures in the labour market. Commodities push UK’s FTSE 100 lower on demand fears Limiting some losses, mining stocks added 0.6% on a weaker dollar. Aveva Group Plc gained 3.2% after Sky News reported that French industrial group Schneider Electric was nearing a deal to take full control of the British software company for about 3.5 billion pounds ($4.1 billion).
Previewing The "Pivotal" August CPI Report: Expect A Miss… A 7-Handle Likely Sees A Very Strong Rally Ahead of tomorrow''s CPI print, Wall Street is split between those who say tomorrow''s inflation data is fully priced in and won''t have an impact on either stocks or the Fed which won''t ease until the breadth of price increases comes closer to the Fed’s 2% goal, and those who - echoing recent comments from the Fed - believe that the CPI is all that matters for the Fed''s upcoming rate decision, even though odds of a 75bps rate hike in two weeks time are just over 90%. Among the former is Goldman trader Matt Fleury who quotes Bullard''s comments from last week, namely that a good CPI report shouldn''t affect the Sept Fed call, and notes that "he is exactly right... We are priced for 75bps already. CPI doesn''t matter. People who don''t have enough length will tell you it does, but it doesn''t. Its priced. The asymmetry is higher here" and is why this traditionally bearish Goldman trader predicted that " we might be starting the Q4 chase early ." But while there may be disagreement over how the market or Fed will react to the CPI, there appears to be agreement that the August inflation print will miss to the downside (by a little or a lot), if mostly at the headline level thanks to plunging commodity prices (core inflation may actually shit higher as Americans shift spending on items such as food and gas into "core" inflation).

Average US Credit Card Rate Hits Highest On Record While the Fed''s rate hiking cycle is about to push the overnight Fed Funds Rate to 2.50% in two weeks, banks have so far completely refused to translate these sharply higher wholesale rates into benefits for US savers. In fact, as the following breakdown of consumer deposit rates at the largest US bank, one would think that the US is still stuck at ZIRP. But while big money center banks refuse to even consider lifting the rate on their savings accounts, they have no such qualms when it comes to how much they charge on credit cards, and according to Bankrate.com''s latest survey, the average credit card rate is now 18.03%, the highest on record since January 1996. According to Ted Rossman, senior industry analyst at Bankrate, “the average credit card rate is now a record-high 18.03% , surpassing the previous record of 17.87% which was set in April 2019. And Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell has made it clear that the Fed is not done raising rates – not by a long shot.

Lloyds Hit With $350 Million In Scam COVID Loans British banks have classified some $1.1 billion pounds (US$1.26bn) worth of emergency pandemic loans as fraud, according to data published Monday by the UK''s Department for Business, Energy and Industry (BEIS). Of that, Lloyds Banking Group has been hit the hardest - at roughly 300 million pounds (US$346 million) of the so-called "bounce back" loans intended for small businesses. The bank also saw a higher ratio of likely fraud, with some 3.6% of its 8.5 billion pounds of bounce back loans marked as suspicious , according to Reuters . Barclays, NetWest, and HSBC fared better, at 2.4%, 1.7% and 1.3% of loans classified as suspected fraud. "Where fraud has been identified, we have acted promptly and have already recovered the majority of these funds without calling on the guarantee and we will continue to attempt to do so even after a claim has been submitted," a Lloyds spokesman told Reuters , adding that at least it''s lower than the 7.5% average estimated by the scheme''s administrator, the British Business Bank.

Markets are jumpy, with US equities trading back and forth over the key supports at the former lows of the cycle in the major indices. The action settled near those important support levels and then futures traded softer overnight in an Asian session that saw the downward spiral in the Japanese yen accelerating despite stern words from Japan’s Ministry of Finance. It seems only a change of course from the Bank of Japan has the chance of slowing the yen’s slide. What is our trading focus? Nasdaq 100 (USNAS100.I) and S&P 500 (US500.I) US equities continued to slide lower yesterday as the US 10-year yield advanced to close at 3.35% getting closer to the recent high of 3.5%. The culprit was the much stronger than expected ISM Services yesterday pushed the Fed Funds forward curve lower indicating higher policy rates for longer. S&P 500 futures fell 0.9% and is trading lower again this morning in early European trading hours sitting around the 3,897 level. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng (HSIU2) and China’s CSI300 (03188:xhkg) Hong Kong stocks notably underperformed their mainland counterparts for the second straight session.
