Deutsche Bank Secures Multiple IFR Asia Awards for Leadership in APAC Bond Markets

(IN BRIEF) Deutsche Bank has been recognised at the 2025 IFR Asia Awards for its leadership in Asia Pacific’s bond markets, including being named Asia’s High Yield Bond House for the fourth consecutive year. The bank also received multiple Landmark Deal Awards across investment-grade, high-yield, private market, and regional transactions. Its role in reopening Chinese high-yield issuance and executing major deals across India, Macau, Indonesia, and the APAC real estate sector highlights Deutsche Bank’s strong regional expertise and investor relationships.

(PRESS RELEASE) FRANKFURT, 10-Jan-2026 — /EuropaWire/ — Deutsche Bank has been recognised for its leadership and execution strength in Asia Pacific’s bond markets at the 2025 IFR Asia Awards. The accolades highlight the bank’s deep regional expertise, strong investor relationships, and its ability to match issuers with the right pools of capital across diverse market conditions.

The awards underscore Deutsche Bank’s continued excellence in Debt Capital Markets (DCM) across the APAC region. In 2025, the bank secured the title of Asia’s High Yield Bond House for the fourth consecutive year, reaffirming its position as a market leader in one of the region’s most competitive segments.

In addition to its high-yield leadership, Deutsche Bank received multiple Landmark Deal Awards spanning a wide range of markets and structures. These included recognition for Renminbi Bond of the Year, Asia’s Investment Grade Bond, Indonesia’s Capital Markets Deal, and Asia’s Private Market Deal, reflecting the breadth and complexity of transactions executed across the region.

Throughout 2025, Deutsche Bank’s DCM team supported issuers from a broad mix of geographies and sectors. The bank played a key role in high-profile bond issuances from Indian companies such as Greenko and Vedanta, as well as from Macau-based issuers including Melco Resorts and Wynn Macau. The team was also instrumental in the revival of Chinese bond issuance, successfully leading transactions for China Hongqiao Group and Fosun International that helped reopen the Chinese high-yield market to international investors.

Momentum extended into the real estate sector, where Deutsche Bank supported Greentown China’s US$350 million transaction, the first offshore bond issued by a Chinese property company in two years. The bank also demonstrated its structuring and distribution capabilities through a series of sole bookrunner transactions, including deals for GLP and Sammaan Capital.

Ed Tsui, Head of Debt Capital Markets and Syndicate for Asia Pacific at Deutsche Bank, said the bank’s ability to execute sole transactions and maintain market leadership reflects the depth of its investor relationships and its understanding of the region’s evolving financial landscape. He added that these strengths enable Deutsche Bank to deliver consistent results for clients across varying market cycles.

The IFR Asia Awards are widely regarded as a benchmark for excellence in Asia Pacific’s capital markets, recognising institutions that demonstrate innovation, execution quality, and sustained market impact. Deutsche Bank’s performance in 2025 reinforces its role as a key partner for issuers seeking access to global capital markets across the APAC region.
