Ari Blaut authored an article in Lexis Practice Advisor titled “Market Trends 2017/18: Investment Grade Debt Offerings.” The article highlighted major 2017 investment grade bond issuances and trends in the 2017 investment grade bond market. Ari also offered practical considerations regarding terms of investment grade bond offerings. “The U.S. investment grade bond market remained robust in 2017 and continued to be an active component of the fixed income market,” Ari said. “While it is difficult to speculate as to activity levels in 2018, strong global capital markets have historically been a good indicator of investment grade activity and will dictate the volume for 2018.”
