Eurex launches the first futures on a Euro High Yield Index
Volatility in the Euro high yield segment has soared as Europe gradually exits a decade of ultra-low rates environment. Inflationary pressures leading to higher borrowing costs have caused EUR HY credit spreads to widen in 2022, as financing conditions are less favorable. The surge in volatility and a higher perceived risk for the future increased the need for hedging by market participants invested in this asset class.
