The Debt Trading Volume Survey is a comprehensive source of information about trading volume and liquidity in Emerging Markets debt instruments. EMTA compiles information from industry participants in five categories: Brady bonds, sovereign and corporate Eurobonds, loans, local currency and USD-denominated local instruments, and debt options and warrants.
Surveys include trading volume data indexed by issuing country and instrument type, an analysis of market trends and historical information on volume breakdowns.
EMTA has published Annual Volume Surveys since 1992. Publication of Quarterly Surveys began in the first quarter of 1997. Data is collected from approximately 80-100 participants in the Emerging Markets debt industry.
Since March 1, 2001, EMTA has calculated a composite reference price for Mexico VRR's, Series A, based upon quotes received from six Reference Dealers. The methodology used by EMTA in determining such EMTA VRR Reference Price is described below.
The most recent weekly EMTA VRR Reference Prices are published on EMTA's website every Monday for the preceding week (for historical EMTA VRR Reference Prices to date simply click and scroll down). The last price posted was on June 13, 2003 since the Series A VRR's expired on June 30, 2003.
