The volume of issued and rated corporate bonds (excluding Government Guaranteed and non-rated Corporate bonds) during 2011 surpassed MARC's forecast of RM50 billion at RM54.7 billion. Non-rated corporate bonds, which includes government-guaranteed sukuk/bonds issued during the year, amounted to RM16.4 billion. The financial and infrastructure sectors dominated issuance activity in 2011.
MARC opines that the sukuk and bond pipeline in 2012 will be sustained by corporate capital spending and Public Private Partnership (PPP) project financings. As in the recent past, MARC expects high investment grade (AA-rated and above) issues to dominate new sukuk/bond issuance. MARC forecasts the gross corporate bond issuance in 2012 to be in the range of RM65-RM75 billion which notably includes Projek Lebuhraya Usahasama Berhad's RM23.35 billion sukuk that was issued in January this year. Underpinning this forecast is the assumption that corporate balance sheets will remain healthy and the economy will continue to grow amid the increasingly uncertain outlook for the global environment.
