Context and risks
Xylem's business is tied to municipal and industrial water infrastructure, with exposure to public and private spending cycles. Rising interest rates (10Y at 5.17%) make financing capital-intensive projects more expensive, which may delay investment decisions at utilities and municipalities, Xylem's key customers.
