Munich Re Tier 2 Issue: We See Fair Value At MS+160bp Area

CREDIT SUPPLY

Munich Re (MUNRE: A pos/A) is issuing Tier 2 debt; IPT is MS+200bp area, we see fair value at MS+160bp area.


  • Munich Re is issuing EUR benchmark Tier 2 debt, 20NC10 with IPT at MS+200bp area with expected ratings of A/A.
  • The insurer hasn’t tapped this market since Aug-21 so its curve is all older, low coupon issues. We note the reinsurers do appear to trade tighter than the major composites (Axa and Allianz) even with the latter at least one notch better rated.
  • Using that HANRUE 5.875% as an anchor and, being happy to trade tight of ALVGR, we can see fair value as tight at MS+160bp area.
