FIG during corrections/recessions

How is deal flow/ activity in FIG impacted by economic downturns and recessions? Is it typically more or less recession proof? Also how will rising interest rates impact FIG deal flow as commercial banks have to alter their strategies which have relied on super low rates in the past?
