Asia loan market remains weak amid conflict
The report indicates that the loan market in Asia and the Pacific faces difficulties in recovery during the second half of the year, impacted by the repercussions of the Iran war, which have reduced confidence among lenders and borrowers. The issuance of loans denominated in dollars, euros, and yen declined by 15% year-on-year in the first half, marking the weakest performance in 16 years, amid a slowdown in deal financing and increased risk scrutiny, with expectations that these pressures will continue until the end of the year. Additionally, geopolitical tensions and economic risks are prompting banks and governments to exercise caution, leading to weakened financing activity and a decline in borrowing demand, as some lenders turn toward higher-yield sectors such as structured finance.
