French Bank Bonds Have Some Protection Against Political Uncertainty -- Market Talk

Dow Jones08-26

1454 GMT - French bank bonds have some protection against political turmoil in the country, ING's Maureen Schuller says in a note. Credit spreads of French bank bonds trade at wider levels than their peers since the political crisis of June 2024, indicating a "cushion was already built in," Schuller says. French bank bond spreads are unlikely to widen sharply as they did during the political crisis of 2024, she says. (miriam.mukuru@wsj.com)
