The long-running saga of the peril of the French public purse took a new twist this week as the country's government collapsed over budget wrangling. That turned the traditional order of relative value between French bond issuers on its head — corporates, including luxury good firm LVMH, now trade tighter than the sovereign.

New HSBC boss Georges Elhedery is restructuring the bank. It's what new CEOs do; and it has certainly been tried at HSBC before, with mixed results. But plenty of people think this time could be different. We explain why Elhedery's plan could work and what the motivations are behind it. A corporate restructuring idea that received a less enthusiastic reception was one to make the UK's troubled water companies — privately owned — operate as non-profits.

Unpredictable weather is increasingly a feature of modern times. Indeed, as GlobalCapital recorded this week's show, summer appeared to have ended abruptly in its corner of the UK, with distinctly autumnal weather dampening both the pavements and the mood despite there still being a chunk of August to go. The bond market was also looking distinctly unseasonal this week too, as issuers across asset classes resumed public benchmark bond issuance early compared to most years.
