In the months since Brazil’s largest bribery scandal broke, bond investors have fled companies tied to the alleged kickbacks. They’ve been far too hasty, according to HSBC Holdings Plc and Mizuho Securities USA. Odebrecht Offshore Drilling and Queiroz Galvao Oil & Gas Constellation are a case in point.
