McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 6 Characteristics of Corporate Notes and Bonds • Corporate bonds tend to be issued with longer maturities when both interest rates and inflation are low. • Some corporate bonds are backed by sinking funds. • A considerable proportion of corporate bonds that are outstanding today carry call privileges. McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 7 Characteristics of Corporate Notes and Bonds • During periods of rapid economic expansion, when the supply of credit is relatively scarce, the cost of borrowing rises. • Yields on the highest-grade bonds tend to move closely with government bond yields. • Yields carried by lower-grade corporate bonds are more closely tied to conditions in the economy and to factors specifically affecting the risk position of each borrowing firm. McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 8 Characteristics of Corporate Notes and Bonds • For a bond that matures in 10 years: • Interest charges on debt are tax deductible, so k’ = k (1 – t).

McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 10 Characteristics of Corporate Notes and Bonds • Common types of corporate bonds include: Debentures – bonds that are not secured by any specific asset Subordinated debentures – junior securities Mortgage bonds – may be closed end or open end Income bonds – interest is paid only when income is actually earned - Equipment trust certificates – resemble leases - Industrial development bonds (IDBs) – issued by a local government borrowing authority - McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 11 Characteristics of Corporate Notes and Bonds • Innovations in corporate debt include: - Discount bonds – including zero coupon bonds - Floating-rate bonds - Commodity-backed bonds – the face value is tied to the market price of an internationally traded commodity - Inflation-linked corporate notes - Medium-term notes (MTNs) – carry maturities of one to ten years McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 12 Asset-Backed Securities Issued by Corporations • The process that gives rise to the creation of asset-backed securities (ABS) is known as securitization. It involves: - Packaging groups of home mortgage loans, usually with guarantees issued by federal agencies, removing them from the lenders’ balance sheets, and placing them in a separate trust account. - Selling the new securities backed by the packaged loans in the open market with the help of an investment bank or other securities firm.

Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 McGraw-Hill All Rights Reserved. 19 - 17 The Secondary Market for Corporate Debt • The secondary market for corporate debt is relatively limited compared to the markets for other long-term securities like common stock and municipal bonds. • The number of active individual investors is small and institutional investors tend to follow a buy and hold strategy. • Recently however, many institutions are looking at total performance and have become more aggressive. McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 18 The Marketing of Corporate Debt • New corporate bonds may be offered publicly in the open market to all interested buyers through a public sale, or sold privately to a limited number of investors via a private or direct placement. • The majority of corporate bond sales are public sales. Private placements are, however, popular among smaller companies and firms with unique financing requirements. McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 19 The Marketing of Corporate Debt • In a public sale, an investment banking firm or a syndicate of underwriters may either purchase the securities directly from the issuing company through a bidding process or guarantee the issuer a specific price for the securities. • In both approaches, the underwriter carries the risk of losses (or gains) when the securities are marked for sale in the open market. McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 20 The Marketing of Corporate Debt • In recent years, private placements have accounted for about 10% of market sales of corporate bonds. • Usually, periods of rising interest rates and reduced credit availability bring more borrowing companies into the public market, while falling interest rates often bring about a rise in private placements.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin Money and Capital Markets, 9/e © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 19 - 24 Bank Loans to Business Firms • The prime bank rate, or base rate, is the annual percentage rate that banks quote to their most creditworthy customers. • Traditionally, the prime rate was set by one or more of the nation’s leading banks, and the other banks followed the leader. • Nowadays however, prime rates are often pegged to the prevailing yields on Treasury bills and other money market instruments.
