The ECM service will continue to cover the growing flow of IPOs, while previewing and tracking upcoming rights issues, convertible bonds and block trades.

Commenting on the launch, ECM coverage head, John West, said: "The shift in size of IPOs we saw in 1H13 is striking – larger deals, led by real estate and financial services, getting done even as the total number of listings slipped. But the second half looks like it will be a lot busier, with Royal Mail’s IPO set to be a major highlight."

"Block trades are always a leading indicator of IPO activity. Last week’s placements bode well for listing candidates, but Syria remains a complicating macro factor," West added.
