(Bloomberg) -- Even though rates volatility is subdued, investors are gravitating toward credit-default indexes to avoid risks of holding illiquid corporate securities as the ECB prepares to scale back bond purchases, Bank of America Merrill Lynch strategists say.

• “We see that in an environment where eventually rates and rates volatility rises amid ECB tapering, credit investors will shift back to the more-liquid CDS index market to manage credit risk,” according to report published Wednesday

• CDS index trading volumes multiply when there is a significant rise in market volatility, providing safe haven for credit traders: BAML
• Liquidity in CDS indexes positively correlated to market volatility
