Bond issuances slow amid geopolitical uncertainty and market volatility

Bond issuances slow amid geopolitical uncertainty and market volatility

Corporate bond issuers are delaying their plans to issue bonds because the market is very unstable.

This instability is caused by ongoing tensions in West Asia, which affect oil prices and, in turn, bond yields.

In June, many companies issued bonds to take advantage of lower yields, but now they are waiting for the market to calm down.

Experts have different opinions on when this will happen.

Some think the market will stabilize soon, while others believe the volatility will continue.

The Reserve Bank of India's measures are expected to support yields, but for now, the uncertainty is keeping bond issuances low.
