Moody's: Global spec-grade corporate default rate eases to 2.2% in April

Moody's default rate forecasting model now predicts that the default rate will end 2015 at 2.6% 

Moody's Investors Service trailing 12-month global speculative-grade default rate closed at 2.2% in April 2015, down from March's rate of 2.3%. 

The latest reading came in close to the rating agency's year-ago prediction of 2.5%. Moody's default rate forecasting model now predicts that the default rate will end 2015 at 2.6%.

 If realized, the rate will be well below the historical average of 4.5%.
