Equity Capital Markets
The equity capital markets raised $3.3 billion this week from 23 issues, pushing year-to-date volume to $32.9 billion -- still down 22% year-on-year. Goldman Sachs now leads the field in the league table rankings on $5.2 billion, followed by UBS on $4.3 billion and Morgan Stanley on $4.2 billion.
Goldman Sachs jumped to the top of the league table on the back of its $1.9 billion sale of shares in Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC). The US investment house also ran a $150 million accelerated bookbuild for a group of investors selling down their stake in Adaro Energy.
A $587 million fully-marketed deal for Smart Rich Energy Finance was the second biggest deal of the week and led by Morgan Stanley.
Deals scheduled to price next week include Lumena Resources Corp's $159 million IPO via bookrunners BOC International, Credit Suisse and Macquarie Group.

The debt capital markets saw a single $300 million trade from Kookmin Bank this week via bookrunners Barclays Capital, BNP Paribas, Citi, HSBC and J.P. Morgan. Volume stands at $20.9 billion so far this year -- up 127% year-on-year.
The top 10 league table rankings remain unchanged with HSBC, Deutsche Bank and Citi taking out the top three spots on $3.5 billion, $3.4 billion and $2.3 billion respectively.
