Euro IG Credit Outlook Q3 2025: Stay cool this summer as economic growth persists and normalcy resumes
Fixed Income Boutique
In breve
- Euro IG bond market showed resilience in Q2 despite geopolitical shocks (US-China tensions, Israel-Iran conflict), with spreads tightening 5–12 bps vs. end-March; higher-beta credit (e.g. AT1s) also rebounded strongly
- Fed turning more attentive to labour market conditions; alongside easing inflation markets price two rate cuts by year-end. Powell signalled openness to earlier easing; yields trending lower, supporting credit
- US-China trade deal in progress, tariffs less disruptive than feared; business investment picking up, boosting sentiment for risk assets
- Eurozone inflation below ECB’s 2% target, with disinflation expected to continue; services activity weak, but manufacturing more stable and Germany improving; ECB likely to stay accommodative
- Technicals in Euro IG remain strong: ~65% of expected net supply through year-end covered by coupon reinvestments; high issuance completion by banks adds stability and supports demand
- Outlook remains constructive: strong fundamentals, favorable technicals, attractive valuations, and a supportive monetary policy backdrop should help markets navigate summer volatility and sustain credit strength.

Fundamentals, technicals, and complacency are outweighing uncertainty
The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz has reduced inflation concerns. While tight credit spreads limit upside, fundamentals and technicals remain supportive of fixed income markets. We are modestly constructive but cautious, particularly on private credit, where complacency around liquidity risks appears underappreciated.

Beneath the hawkish headlines: What’s next for the European Central Bank, Federal Reserve, and Bank of Japan?
The closure of the Strait of Hormuz reignited inflation concerns and prompted major central banks into a more hawkish stance. While inflation has risen, we believe the shock is temporary, making further ECB and Fed tightening unlikely. An additional hike from the BoJ is likely, in our view, but it risks moving too slowly.

Somewhat reopened is good enough for EM fixed income
EM fixed income stayed resilient through the war-induced shock. As oil prices fell, inflation remained contained. Capital inflows resumed after a brief interruption and sovereign rating upgrades continued. We believe the asset class is supported by elevated global risk appetite, attractive local-currency yields, and diversification away from US assets.
