Our Team
Our Frankfurt-based Bloomberg New Issues Credit team manages the timely and accurate coverage of corporate bonds issued in the German, Austrian, and Swiss (DACH) region as they are brought to market.

Our coverage plays a critical role in enabling leading financial institutions, such as syndicate desks, asset managers, and fixed income traders, to monitor primary market activity in real time.

Our team includes domain experts and technical specialists who combine financial knowledge and data management acumen to innovate at the heart of Bloomberg's fixed income offering.
