  • The world’s elite AAA-rated bond issuers will need to be fast on their feet to get the best deals in 2002. Interest rates are on the way up and investors look set to focus on yield rather than quality. Charles Olivier reports on borrowing strategies.

  • In the January edition of Euromoney in the article headed: "Banks downsize, centralize and head for China" we incorrectly stated that Merrill Lynch had pulled out of Indonesia.
  • So Sandy Weill has a successor at last. Or does he? The chairman and CEO of Citigroup has announced that Bob Willumstad is being promoted to president.
