Welcome! AsianBondsOnline is a one-stop source of information on bond markets in emerging East Asia.
The ASEAN+3 Bond Market Forum (ABMF) Brief series aims to provide insights on professional bond markets, their development, and necessary or desirable components to issuers, investors, market intermediaries, regulatory authorities and policymakers, academia, and other interested parties.
