Lucror Analytics

Lucror Analytics is a leading credit and ESG research specialist and a provider of technology solutions for differentiated fixed income strategies. Our roots are in bottom-up fundamental credit analysis with a specialization in high yield corporate credits from Europe, Asia and Latin America. We are one of few research specialists integrating ESG considerations with fundamental credit research through a dedicated ESG platform. Our ESG assessment covers five key criteria: Disclosure, E,S, & G Pillars, Controversies, ESG Impact on Credit and ESG Momentum.

Recognizing the importance and value-add of Factor Investing in fixed income, Lucror developed the Smart Quant Navigator (SQN), an intuitive platform that helps clients devise and implement factor-based strategies ranging from pure quant to active fundamental, with integrated ESG.

Our company has been at the forefront of developments in the fixed income markets, identifying opportunities and consistently delivering new products and value-adding solutions to clients. Lucror has close relationships with the largest and most reputable asset managers, family offices, hedge funds, investment and wealth managers globally.

Credit

We view Yankuang as "Low Risk" on the LARA scale. This reflects: [1] the company's huge scale (producing over 100 mn tons a year) and status as the second-largest producer in the Chinese coal sector; and [2] that it is majority owned by, and has strategic importance to, the Shandong government. These translate to strong access to onshore capital. Our assessment also takes into account Yankuang's: [1] earnings being dependent on coal price fluctuations; [2] improving financial profile; [3] exposure to adverse movements of the USD against the CNY; and [4] track record of operation. Our fundamental Credit Bias on Yankuang is "Positive", due to: [1] the company's enhanced SOE status following the completion of the Yanzhou Coal/Shandong Energy merger; and [2] supportive coal prices. Controversies are "Immaterial", but the ESG Impact on Credit is "Moderately Negative". The coal mining industry in China is exposed to regulatory and geopolitical risks, such as forced closures of inefficient mines. The industry also faces extreme scrutiny from environmental agencies, given its negative impact on the environment.
