Debt refinancing and AI investment jointly drive! The issuance of investment-grade corporate bonds in the United States hits the second highest in history.

According to the Wisdom Finance APP, as enterprises use lower borrowing costs for debt refinancing, provide funds for acquisitions, and invest in the AI field, the annual issuance of investment grade corporate bonds in the United States has reached the second highest level on record. Data shows that after completing four transactions on Tuesday, the total issuance of investment-grade corporate bonds in the United States this year has reached $1.499 trillion, slightly exceeding the size of $1.496 trillion last year. Although the issuance volume is unlikely to reach the historical peak of $1.75 trillion in 2020, the financing environment this year is still quite favorable for issuers due to strong investor demand and global major central banks have successively lowered policy interest rates.
