    We entered the current recession with a median credit rating for corporate and sovereign entities significantly weaker than at the onset of the global financial crisis ('BBB' versus 'BB+'). Speculative-grade bond issuance more than doubled in the past decade, fueled by low interest rates. The median rating for new nonfinancial corporate issuers is 'B' globally, declining from 'BB-' in 2008. We expect the U.S. trailing 12-month speculative-grade corporate default rate to rise to 12.5% by March from 3.5% in March this year. Airports across the world face a long, slow recovery from the fall in traffic and revenues due to the lockdowns and travel restrictions related to COVID-19. We now estimate global air passenger numbers to drop 50%-55% this year, a far steeper decline than we anticipated in March. We expect passenger numbers will stay below pre-pandemic levels through 2023.
