DZ BANK French Covered Bond Day 2021

Virtual Event, Wednesday 16th June 2021

“Vive la France!” is a common saying in French. In covered bonds, the vitality of French supply is an essential cornerstone for the whole market. French covered bonds made up almost 1/3 of total EUR supply in 2020 and are on the best path to achieving this outstanding position again this year. The post-Covid economic recovery in combination with the strong intention of the French government for a sustainable transition will present great opportunities but also challenges to the French banking industry. Moreover, inflation fears and a tapering discussion could be added to the mix later in the year. Last but not least, the covered bond directive will have to be implemented into French law by July 8th, 2021. No doubt, an eventful second half of the year is in front of us!

 

DZ BANK invites you to our virtual French Covered Bond Day on Wednesday, 16th June 2021 to discuss the following topics with a top rating agency, one of the largest German asset managers and three key French covered bond issuers:

» Implementation of the covered bond directive into French law – What, when and how?

» Covid and asset quality of French banks – What are the rating implications?

» Covered bonds and sustainability – A perfect fit!

» Post-Covid sustainable recovery – Where are the opportunities and challenges for covered bond issuers and investors?
