Bloomberg Fixed Income - League Tables Criteria
General Guidelines
Credit is based on the total amount of the offering. Full credit is awarded to the sole bookrunning manager or split equally among joint bookrunning managers;
unless a full, explicit breakdown of bookrunning is provided by an involved party.
Issues are credited based on principal value in all instances except for deep discount bonds (priced 80% or lower). Deep discounted issues are credited based
on the proceeds amount. The proceeds are equal to the face amount multiplied by the issue price.
Regional and local tables are identified based on factors such as currency, market of issue, market of syndication and/or country of risk. To view the criteria for
a particular table click on the information symbol to the right of the table heading.
All transaction must have a maturity or a call/put option of minimum 18 month. Make-whole calls, provisional calls/puts are exempt from this rule. Increases and
fungible securities are also subject to the 18 month minimum period. Note: criteria may vary for some local and/or regional tables.
USD denominated 144A/REG S issues are credited 100% to the 144A tranche and 0% to the REG S tranche. Non-USD denominated 144A/REG S issues are
credited 100% to the REG S tranche and 0% to the 144A tranche.
New money portions of exchange offers are eligible for credit.
Investment grade and high yield transactions are based on official, expected, and provisional ratings by Fitch, Moodys and S&P. Note: Criteria may vary for
some local and/or regional table. When rating is split, transaction will appear in the relevant high yield table.
Exclusions
Accredited investor tranches, asset-backed issues, auction note agencies, collateralized bond obligations, collateralized loan obligations, commercial paper,
municipal bonds, mortgage-backed issues, remarketed issues, repackaged bonds, government borrowing scheme retained bonds, variable principal
redemption issues, variable interest equity-linked issues, and credit linked notes, selling group agency issues, strips, units, warrants, self-led under USD 50
million. Note: criteria may vary for some local and/or regional tables.
