RELX/Enriching its proprietary data through AI tools

In February 2026, RELX reported strong FY25 results. This reinforces our view that the company has a strong credit profile. We do not believe AI trends are a threat to RELX's business. We expect the company to maintain current ratings and prefer its notes over the notes of some telecom operators such as Orange. Nevertheless, the notes of Wolters Kluwer look slightly more attractive, in our view.

Wolters Kluwer/Fear of disruption by AI looks overdone

Wolters Kluwer's equity price has rebounded from its February 2026 lows. In our view, the FY25 results, published on 25 February 2026, show the company is resilient, while management highlighted that AI is an opportunity and not a risk. We continue to hold the view that AI disruption risk for the company is low. The spread on the notes of Wolters Kluwer looks attractive, in our view.
