Fibre deals particularly across Europe are continuing to reach close at a steady rate, and we are at an interesting point with the asset class where the questions over what is next are starting to be raised, join our panellists as we discuss:

- The impact of overbuild and competition on the Fibre market

- As we enter the ‘second wave of fibre’ we are seeing a lot of refinancings, what do these structures look like?

- Does the outlook for fibre investment differ when we break it down regionally across the globe?

- What are the prospects for consolidation in global fibre markets?

Are underwriters seeing the quality risks they want in today’s uncertain macroeconomic and geopolitical climate; will they start viewing riskier ventures further afield? How is the regulatory landscape with Basel IV playing out, how will this affect our product offering, and how is the market evolving in response to support clients’ needs? What new trends and innovations are we seeing in the market? Are underwriters willing and able to match bank appetite for SRTs? How have the modernised OECD guidelines affected the market for the export credit transactions and what would a return to 95% ECA cover mean for the market? How are Managing General Agents (MGAs) bringing new capacity to the market?
