DBRS Morningstar Posts Webinar Replay on COVID-19 Risks to European Structured Credit Transactions Two Years On

DBRS Morningstar posted a webinar replay focusing on the risks to European structured credit transactions two years into the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic. The webinar was hosted by Mudasar Chaudhry, Head of European Structured Finance Research. Chaudhry was joined by Carlos Silva, Head of European Structured Credit and Alfonso Candelas, Head of European Structured Finance Surveillance.

The discussion focused on the uneven impact of the pandemic on certain sectors over the past two years. In our May 2020 commentary titled “European Structured Credit Transactions' Risk Exposure to Coronavirus (COVID-19) Effect” (https://www.dbrsmorningstar.com/research/361098/european-structured-credit-transactions-risk-exposure-to-coronavirus-covid-19-effect), we highlighted how the pandemic would likely affect some economic sectors unevenly and provided a list of the sectors we identified as having the highest perceived sensitivity to the pandemic. We have now updated this commentary and reduced the number of industry sectors as the pandemic-induced volatility continues to abate. Our updated commentary, “Two Years into COVID-19: Risks to European Structured Credit Transactions” is available at https://www.dbrsmorningstar.com/research/392167.

The discussion lasted approximately 30 minutes and was followed by an interactive question-and-answer session.
