Weekly news, topics & discussions
This week the key topics in discussions with clients were liquidity runways (where we believe AkerBP’s flexibility in terms of cutting DPS has been underestimated by investors), oil prices and downside protection. It was yet another brutal week for oil prices, which hit a 17-year low before recovering at the end of the week.
