Summary-

The attached ASX-listed hybrids universe (36 lines) remains a steady income play for yield-seeking investors. The sample shows an average running yield of 6.72% (median 6.46%), with the spectrum running from ~5.97% to 9.60%. Major banks dominate the register — NAB, CBA, Westpac, ANZ and Macquarie account for roughly 61% of the listings (22 of 36) — keeping the sector conservative in issuer mix and credit profile. The average market price sits modestly above par at ~104.05c, implying investors are still paying a premium for running income and relative stability.

Key takeaways (data-driven)

  • Universe size: 36 ASX-listed hybrids (data dated 27 Nov 2025).

  • Running yield: Mean 6.72%, median 6.46%; range 5.97% → 9.60%.

  • Top yields (by running yield):

    1. Judo Capital (JDOPA)9.60% (day close 111.71c)

    2. Latitude (LFSPA)8.51% (98.50c)

    3. Challenger (CGFPC)8.01% (102.66c)

    4. Macquarie Group (MQGPD)7.58% (102.95c)

    5. NAB (NABPF)7.50% (101.94c)

  • Market pricing: Average DAY CLOSE ≈ 104.05c — a small premium versus par, reflecting demand for yield and limited supply.

  • Trading margin: where reported, the trading-margin metrics average ~1.57%, indicating moderate secondary-market spreads.

What this means for investors

  1. Attractive yields, but watch issuer mix. Average running yields in the high-6% area remain compelling versus many low-risk cash alternatives. However, the sector is heavily weighted to big banks (over 60% of listings) — good for credit comfort, but it concentrates issuer risk.

  2. Top-yield names reflect issuer-specific drivers. The highest running yields (Judo, Latitude, Challenger) are noticeably above the universe mean — these can represent either higher coupon structures or market repricing reflecting issuer / structural risk. Investors should check call dates, subordination and any reset mechanics before buying.

  3. Price premiums indicate demand. With average day-close ≈104c, buyers are paying for ongoing distributions. That premium compresses effective yield-to-call; if rates or credit sentiment shifts, prices could re-rate.

  4. Secondary liquidity and trading margin matter. Trading margin averages (~1.6%) suggest modest spreads — useful for investors who may need to trade out before call or maturity. Less-liquid, smaller-issuer hybrids can show wider spreads and more price volatility.
