Turkish sovereign dollar bonds fall after Moody's warning

Dollar-denominated bonds issued by the Turkish government fell across the curve on Wednesday after rating agency Moody's downgraded 20 Turkish financial institutions, citing an increased risk of a deterioration in funding.

Turkey's 2043 Eurobond fell 1 cent to 68.22 cents in the dollar according to Tradeweb, and the 2045 issue fell 1.1 cents to 80.77 cents.

In another sign of deterioration, Turkey's economic confidence index fell 9 percent month-on-month to 83.9 points in August, its lowest since March 2009.
