Chinese issuers push debt capital market to record level

Chinese debt issuers pushed the global real estate debt capital market to a record level, statistics from financial service platform Dealogic showed on Monday.

Global real estate debt capital market volume stands at $20.8 billion via 82 deals in 2014 year-to-date, up from $18.6 billion and 91 deals in the same period of 2013 and the YTD highest level on record, according to Dealogic.

China accounts for 38 percent of global real estate DCM with $7.9 billion so far in 2014, the leading nation for the second consecutive YTD period and just short of the YTD record of $8 billion raised in 2013.

China real estate international bond issuance totals $6.4 billion via 16 deals so far in 2014, down slightly year-on-year, while onshore DCM volume at $1.5 billion via 13 deals is the highest YTD level on record and up from $988 million via five issues in 2013 YTD, the report showed.
