In detail
Listed bonds offer flexibility: they can be listed on the international capital market of your choice, to tempt a wide investor base. Retail and institutional investors alike are attracted to listed bonds because they offer liquidity, structured protection and higher levels of disclosure than other forms of alternative finance.
Companies seeking funds like them because they’re a cost-effective way to raise significant amounts with lower interest rates, they’re convertible, can be secured or unsecured.
We make listed bonds work by bringing together fund-seeking companies, advisors, banks and investors. We work with trusted advisors to create a listed bond that’s practical, flexible and appealing to all parties. The two main pitfalls with listed bonds are multiple stakeholders with differing demands and ensuring that the company retains control. We’re prepared for those issues and will advise on how to reduce the risks.
We usually advise on listed bond issues in the £100 – £200 million range.
