Global investment-grade credit continues to ""walk the walk"" despite a slight deterioration in Q4 as slower growth and higher interest rates bite. A heathy volume of rising stars, coupled with a healthy number of entities on positive outlook/CreditWatch, signals that rating performance should remain relatively strong in 2024. 

We are watching key areas of potential stress, including U.S. and European homebuilder and real estate companies and Bermuda-based re/insurers amid wider concerns regarding geopolitical tensions: https://ow.ly/FA6750Qy9ON

China's #securitization issuance saw another year of declining volume amid a weak #property market and slow auto sales. New securitization issuance decreased by 7% to Chinese renminbi (RMB) 1.9 trillion (US$264 billion) in 2023, and it will likely remain flat in 2024.

S&P Global Ratings believes #delinquency trends are gradually stabilizing. The delinquency ratios in residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) have dropped following a one-off spike, and auto loan asset-backed securities (ABS) have also seen a decline in severe delinquency ratios.

The creditworthiness of Japan's #insurers we rate will likely remain stable in 2024. Better-diversified #earnings, higher #investment income, and strong capital bases owing to reduced market risk exposure are likely to underpin their creditworthiness.

For the strongest insurers, however, upside is limited. This is because our sovereign rating on Japan (A+/Stable/A-1) continues to constrain our ratings on insurers. Read our S&P Global Ratings article to learn more: https://ow.ly/q7Iv50QzMyQ

Following a 1 million b/d growth in US #oil output in 2023, oil producers and service companies have been warning of slowing growth this year during their fourth quarter #earnings calls. Will #production surprise to the upside? And what would that mean for US refiners?

In this episode of the Platts Oil Markets podcast from S&P Global Commodity Insights, senior upstream editor Starr Spencer, senior refinery editor Janet McGurty and midstream editor Binish Azhar discuss these questions and more with host Jeff Mower, Americas Oil News Director.

An evolving reporting environment for #GreenhouseGas emissions should spur the so-far limited adoption of a key standard for measuring #emissions in insurers' underwriting portfolios.

The first version of an insurance-associated emissions standard was launched by the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF), a standards-setter for measuring financial institutions' emissions, in November 2022. But so far, only a small number of insurers have published emissions estimates or targets using its methods.

Most people associate carbon #emissions with heavy industries like steel or cement. While it is true that these sectors struggle to #decarbonize at scale, digital industries have their own emissions problem. Generative #AI, blockchain #technology and most cloud-based applications require massive processing power provided by hyperscaler datacenters.

China added a record 301 GW of #renewable power generation capacity including solar, wind and hydro in 2023, accounting for around 59% of the world’s total renewable capacity additions last year. It added 216 GW of solar PV capacity alone in 2023 that was equal to 14% of the world’s total installed #solar PV capacity, more than what many countries have ever installed in total. However, teething troubles mean that power grids are still struggling to absorb the huge capacity expansions and it will be a while before the new plants meet viable levels of actual #PowerGeneration.

According to Carlos Pascual of S&P Global Commodity Insights, what is going to become critical in the #geopolitics of #energy is that different strategies are united in some form of cooperation.

Banks reported modest #deposit growth in the fourth quarter of 2023 as they encountered easing #funding price pressures and began to set expectations for deposit cost reductions when the Federal Reserve cuts #InterestRates.

The median US public bank posted sequential deposit growth of 0.3%, according to earnings reports through Jan. 26 compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence. The 20 largest by assets did a bit better with a median 0.4%, and the vast majority of those with at least $50 billion of assets added to securities holdings amid soft loan growth.
