Nordic High Yield Bond Market Reaches New Heights in 2024

Frankfurt, January 29, 2025 – Pareto Securities announced a landmark year for the Nordic High Yield (HY) bond market in 2024, with a record issuance volume of €17.9 billion, surpassing the 2021 record by €2.2 billion. This growth resulted from strong refinancing demand and favorable market conditions, as evidenced by the tightening of Nordic HY spreads by 118 basis points.

The market's internationalization accelerated, with non-Nordic issuers comprising 44% of total issuance. Notably, German issuers engaged significantly, executing 14 transactions worth €1.3 billion. Pareto Securities, holding a 30% market share, led these efforts, facilitating capital access for its clients.

Looking ahead, the Nordic HY market is expected to continue thriving in 2025, supported by steady fund inflows and a positive monetary environment, reinforcing its international appeal and resilience.
