Cbonds indices
editCbonds has developed groups of bond indices allowing to assess bond price and yield levels in various market segments.
Euro-Cbonds Emerging Market Indices have been calculated by Cbonds since 01.01.2010. The indices show price dynamics and yield on the EM sovereign Eurobond portfolio in USD. The underlying bond issues must be worth no less than US$2bn, traded no less than 12 days per month and rated at least by one international rating agency (BB-/Вaa3 or higher). The list of underlying securities is reviewed on a monthly basis. Currently these indices are calculated for major EM countries (Brazil, India, China, Indonesia, Mexico and others), and also composite indices for regions (Asia, Africa, LatAm, CEE) and global EM universe.[7]
Cbonds corporate bond indices are calculated for USD-denominated corporate Eurobonds. These indices are calculated for each country, and also composite indices for regions and global EM universe. For some countries (United States, Brazil, Italy, Canada) corporate indices are calculated as well for investment grade and high yield segment.
