Equity capital markets
Issuers in the equity capital markets raised a total of $6.5 billion from 20 issues this week, more than triple the $2.1 billion achieved in the week prior and stands as the third highest weekly volume in 2011.

The deal involved four bookrunners and saw Deutsche Bank move up to second place from third with $4.2bn. The deal also saw China International Capital Corp climbed into the top 10 from 13th, with $2.2 billion. Other bookrunners included Credit Suisse and Goldman Sachs.
Goldman Sachs continues to dominate the league table rankings with $7.8 billion, followed by Deutsche Bank and UBS.
Power Finance Corp’s $1 billion follow-on was the second-biggest transaction of the week and also represents the second-biggest Indian deal this year. The bookrunners were Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, ICICI Bank and JM Financial.
