A-Issuers at Risk: Which Bonds to Buy to Avoid Default.
In 2026, credit risks reached a new level. Debt has become a problem for issuers rated A and above: there is no default, but companies are walking a fine line.
The bonds of companies with large debts are falling rapidly: securities of Smolt, Balti Leasing, Polyplast, Delimobil and Athlon are trading at a yield of over 30%.
We have selected the 20 most reliable issuers that are highly unlikely to face solvency problems in 2027. There will be no high stakes, but the investor can rely on the declared return and not on a sudden loss.
The entire list is on the cards: oil and gas and energy companies, metals and chemists, nuclear industry, communications, agro-industrial complex, development institutions.
One of the most protected categories is systemically important banks. The reason for this is their special role in the economy: the problems of such a bank could threaten the entire financial system.
More details and interesting issuances from these issuers can be found in the article on Alpha Investor.
