Our distribution capabilities are extensive. Our clientele consists of the some of largest mutual funds, insurance companies, hedge funds and pension funds in the world. Convertible securities provide numerous advantages over equity and straight debt funding. Convertibles allow companies to access cheaper sources of capital from the financial markets because of the “equity kicker” associated with them. They also allow them to sell stock at a premium to their current stock price. |
