Abstract:
The Indian capital market lacks an organized futures and options market. The investors are, therefore, not able to manage their portfolio risks effectively. In this article, S K Barua and V Raghunathan examine the possibility of introducing call and put options in a limited way by making modifications in the terms of issue of convertible debentures and equity. According to them, this will reduce the need for government interventions in the primary market and provide greater investor protection without compromising market efficiency.

Abstract:
We present descriptive evidence on the quality of firms' disclosures related to contingently convertible securities (COCOs). We document evidence of inconsistent and inadequate disclosure of the information necessary to undo the financial reporting effects associated with COCOs prior to 2004, when only the general disclosure requirements on capital structure provided in SFAS 129 were in effect. Disclosure quality improved after the introduction of FASB Staff Position 129-a, which specifically required firms to disclose the terms of COCOs that would enable users to understand the conversion features of COCOs and their potential impact on earnings per share (EPS). However, we find evidence that managerial incentives significantly affect disclosure quality in both disclosure regimes. Our results underscore the difficulty that standard setters face in developing general disclosure guidelines that foster adequate disclosure and suggest that additional specific disclosure guidance may be necessary as new financial instruments and transactions evolve.

Abstract:
We implemented a methodology to calibrate capital structure models for banks that have issued contingent convertible securities (CoCos). Typical studies involving capital structure model calibration focus on non-financial firms as they have lower leverage and no contingent convertible securities. From a theoretical perspective, we found that jumps in the asset value process were necessary to obtain a satisfactory fit to the market data. In practice, contingent capital conversion triggers are discretionary, and there is considerable uncertainty around when regulators are likely to enforce conversion. The market-implied conversion triggers we obtain indicate that the market expects regulators to enforce conversion while the issuing bank is a going concern, as opposed to a gone concern. This fact is presumably of interest to potential dealers, regulators, issuers, and investors.

Abstract:
Purpose This study aims to investigate the use of convertible securities and control rights covenants for a sample of 53 Portuguese, Spanish and German venture capital (VC) firms. Design/methodology/approach A relatively new methodology in business sciences – a fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis – that considers both quantitative and qualitative factors is used for obtaining a solution that best fits the empirical data. Findings The results show that the use of convertible securities is affected by agency predictions, namely, the anticipated severity of double-sided moral hazard problems. On the other hand, a mixed support is provided to the agency predictions regarding the use of control right covenants. The results seem to suggest that control right covenants tend to play a different role from convertible securities in the optimization of contract design for VC-backed investments. Originality/value Existing literature on VC contract design is extended by providing a cross-border analysis to VC financing decision.

Abstract:
The aim of this article is to characterize and show the differences between issuers of ordinary convertibles and convertibles with attached put/call provisions (put/call convertibles). The research was carried out on a sample of 379 firms in the US market, outside the financial sector, between 2002 and 2011. It turns out that the issuers of put/call convertibles are the companies with a higher risk exposure, associated with, inter alia, a higher level of indebtedness and worse ratio between the issue value to the fixed assets value. Adding the put/call provisions is aimed at decreasing issuers’ risk exposure, which may increase the market demand for this type of convertible securities.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to show how convertible debt is used in the renewable energy industry. The authors argue that there is an investor rationing component to the design and market impact of convertible debt securities. Design/methodology/approach – The authors apply event study methodology, option pricing theory and risk shift analysis to examine capital market reactions following the issuance of convertible debt by exchange-listed companies of the renewable energy sector. Findings – Contrary to prior cross-industry research findings, the authors show that convertible debt in the renewable energy industry tends to have a debt-like structure, and its issue is associated with strongly negative announcement returns. The authors further show that convertible issuers face high business risk and adverse selection costs. Practical implications – The results have important implications for both renewable energy industry companies and investors. For example, one problem is that the risk-mitigating features of convertible debt may not materialize, if issuers fail to credibly signal firm quality to the markets. Furthermore, excessive growth assumptions and mismatches between project risk/return and financing costs may render it more difficult to create credible signals. Originality/value – The paper contributes to three primary strands of literature. One is the research on finance and growth. Here, this paper provides new insights into risk-mitigating securities that should more effectively mirror the risk and return distributions of emerging industry issuers. Additionally, it extends the research on the motives for convertible debt offerings and provides insight on stock returns around such announcements.

Abstract:
Efficient pricing of securities and maintenance of parity between risk and return are absolutely essential for a well-functioning capital market. In this paper, S K Barua and V Raghunathan discuss a clear case of observed inefficiency in the Indian capital market. They show, taking the case of Reliance, that an investor can earn returns incommensurate with the degree of risk assumed by operating on rights issues of shares and convertible debentures simultaneously in forward and cash markets. Although the government policy of granting a low premium on rights shares and convertible debentures aids inefficiency, the market is also to be blamed since it is unable to adjust quickly the prices of securities so that the returns earned are in line with the risks assumed.

Abstract:
Purpose: The issuance of redeemable convertible preferred stock (RCPS) has been steadily increasing in Korea since the revision of the Commercial Act, which allows firms to issue various types of stocks, in 2010. This study aims to verify equity financing behavior by examining the characteristics of firms that issue RCPS. Design/methodology/approach: Using a sample of 12,768 firm-year observations of Korean listed companies from 2011 to 2018, this study conducts univariate and multivariate analyses to examine the factors that affect firms' decisions regarding RCPS issuance. For multivariate analysis, logistic regression analysis is used. Findings: This study shows that firms issuing RCPS have higher debt ratios and lower operating cash flows than non-issuing firms. It is also found that firms issuing RCPS are smaller and younger than non-issuing firms. These findings indicate that firms with higher costs of financial distress, lower internal cash flow, and lower credibility/reputation are more likely to issue RCPS because they are constrained by debt capacity. Research limitations/implications: According to pecking order theory, firms prefer debt over equity if external funds are required. The results of this study support the pecking order theory by providing evidence that firms rely on hybrid securities financing like redeemable preferred stock, a priority after debt when they are constrained by debt capacity. Originality/value: This study sheds light on financing decisions related to the issuance of hybrid securities from the perspective of pecking order theory. It also contributes to broadening the scope of research on hybrid securities by providing empirical evidence on the financial characteristics of firms that issue RCPS.

Abstract:
Executive stock options and convertible securities can increase the number of common shares outstanding while adding less than the market value of the newly issued securities to a firm's assets. We model the effect of expected dilution on the earnings/return relation. Expected dilution effectively reduces the permanence of an earnings innovation. Empirical evidence supports the hypothesis that dilutive securities attenuate the relation between earnings and returns. Estimated earnings response coefficients (ERCs) are significantly lower when there are shares reserved for conversion. The effect is more pronounced for firms that have experienced price increases or positive earnings news, as these increase the expected dilutive effect of conversions.

Abstract:
As of 2023, it has been 32 years since convertible bonds were introduced into China. In 1992, Baoan convertible bonds, as China's first convertible bonds, were issued with an issue size of RMB 500 million, thus opening the door to China's convertible bond market. However, for a long time, due to the imperfection of relevant laws and regulations, the growth rate of the convertible bond market has been very slow, and listed companies prefer equity financing, which makes it difficult for convertible bonds to be implemented on a large scale. However, since 2015, the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has issued a series of laws and regulations, including the Implementing Rules for the Non-public Offering of Shares by Listed Companies (2017) and the Notice on Matters Relating to the Reporting of Procedural Transactions of Convertible Bonds (2021), which shows that the SFC intends to promote the standardized development of convertible bonds. As a result, the number and size of convertible bonds have grown rapidly, and convertible bonds have become increasingly popular among low-risk investors. In the increasingly hot situation of the convertible bond market, this paper chooses Jiangnan Water Company as a typical case representative, through the analysis of its convertible bond issuance program, the company's early resale behavior of the motivation and impact to find the problems in the corporate issuance of convertible bonds, and for the future want to issue the convertible bonds of the company to provide the applicable recommendations, the following is the research of this paper to improve some of the measures: choosing the right time of sale; the establishment of convertible bonds early warning system, strengthen internal control; according to the financing project to select the appropriate financing methods, and so on.

Abstract:
This study examines the Zambian regulatory and institutional framework which governs the public distribution of securities so as to establish whether or not the said framework provides adequate incentives for the growth of bond issues and the bond market in Zambia. The study employs the doctrinal and the non-doctrinal approaches to evaluating the effectiveness of regulatory rules and institutions. The results of the study are: (i) the Zambian bond market is in the nascent stage of development like the bond markets of most Sub-Saharan jurisdictions (ii) the corresponding equity markets in Sub-Saharan jurisdictions are also under-developed in comparison to their South American, Asian and European counter-parts (iii) there are quantitative restrictions on the investment of surplus pension monies in securities, and (iv) there is limited pension fund participation in domestic Sub-Saharan securities markets. This study argues that the efforts to enhance the investor base for Sub-Saharan equity markets could be augmented by a functional bond market which could serve as a source of investors for bond-like equities, convertible bonds and equity-linked bonds. The study argues further that by promoting the issue of convertible and other equity-linked Green and Sustainability Bonds, a functional bond market could serve as a source of investors for the equity markets as investors convert the bonds to equities or, exchange the bonds with equities or indeed subscribe for new issues of equity securities. A corollary argument is that a vibrant and successful secondary bond market is likely to incentivize new issues of equity securities and enhance the supply of equity securities to the market so as to match up the escalating demand—a condition which is necessary for price stability. The other argument is that the replacement of the quantitative restrictions with the prudent-person rule for the investment pf surplus pension fund monies is likely to promote the participation of pensions funds in bond markets and ensure the success of Sub-Saharan Africa securities markets.

Abstract:
The issue of debt versus equity classification for hybrid securities has been a source of continuing controversy for tax policy-makers and financial accounting standard setters. A large number of corporations have issued hybrid financial instruments which possess the characteristics of both debt and equity. One of the most common examples of hybrid financial instruments is convertible debt. Issuers of convertible debt were motivated by a desire to raise capital that would be attractive to the capital markets while at the same time exploit tax or reporting rules. For instance, the issuer of convertible debt is allowed a tax deduction for interest expense even though the convertible debt instrument may later be converted to equity, thus avoiding repayment of principal at maturity. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) allows the issuer a tax deduction for interest expense, while requiring the holder to recognize taxable interest income. However, the IRS and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) have considered treating convertible debt according to its underlying economic substance and ultimate outcome as opposed to treating it strictly as debt. If the IRS, the FASB, or both were to move towards an economic substance approach with respect to convertible debt, what implications would this have on the issuers and holders of convertible debt? This article speculates on changes in tax and reporting rules for convertible debt and analyzes the potential impact of such changes on the treatment of distributions from convertible debt. Our analysis shows that if convertible debt were treated as equity and its distributions no longer eligible for interest expense deductions, issuers would experience a decrease in cash flow from operations due to the presumed increase in tax liability. Conversely, holders of convertible debt may be eligible for the dividends-received deduction.

Abstract:
In times of financial distress, banks struggle to source additional capital from reluctant private investors. Sovereign bailouts prevent disruptive insolvencies, but distort bank incentives. Contingent convertible capital instruments (CoCos) – securities which possess a loss-absorbing mechanism in situations where the capital of the issuing bank reaches a level lower than a predefined level – offer a potential solution. Although gaining in popularity in developed economies, CoCo issuance in Africa is still in its infancy, possibly due to pricing complexity and ambiguity about conversion triggers. In this paper, the pricing of these instruments is investigated and the influence of local conditions (using data from three major African markets and an all- African index) on CoCo prices is explored. We find that the African milieu (high interest rates and equity volatility compared with the situation in developed markets) makes CoCos particularly attractive instruments for the simultaneous reduction of debt and the enhancement of capital. If CoCo issuance becomes a viable bank recapitalisation tool in Africa, these details will be valuable to future investors and issuers.

Abstract:
In this paper, we examined the economic benefits of derivatives in the aspect of investment assets. Our study differs from previous studies in that it analyzed the differences in the economic benefits of derivatives between for short term investors and for long term investors, and focused on the equity linked securities (ELS) rather than plain vanilla derivatives. We found the following results from the analysis over 1 to 20 years of investment horizons for four different types of equity linked securities, including ‘Auto-callable ELS’, ‘Knock-out ELS’, ‘Digital ELS’ and ‘Reverse Convertible ELS.’ First, equity linked securities contribute to improving the performance of the optimal portfolio for most investors, except for some investors who have extremely low degrees of risk aversion. Second, these economic benefits of equity linked securities are consistently observed regardless of investment horizon. Third, investment demand for equity linked securities is higher for investors with a medium-level of risk aversion rather than for aggressive or conservative investors. In addition, equity linked securities are mainly used as substitutes for risk-free bonds rather than risky assets (i.e., stocks). Finally, most of our results are still valid even when different market environments are assumed or alternative decision rules are used to derive investors’ optimal portfolio.

Maatskappye geniet aansienlike vryheid ten opsigte van die regte wat aan verskillende klasse aandele toegewys word. Benewens tipiese klasonderskeidings gebaseer op stemreg, aanspraak op dividende en die reg om by ontbinding in die maatskappy se netto bates te deel, kan die eienskappe van aflosbaarheid en omskepbaarheid verdere variasie in die aandeelstruktuur skep. Hierdie bydrae fokus op omskepbare aandele en ander omskepbare sekuriteite soos omskepbare skuldbriewe. Omskepbaarheid dui op die kenmerk dat een sekuriteit mettertyd omskep kan word in ’n ander sekuriteit, hetsy ter keuse van die maatskappy, die aandeelhouer, of by die plaasvind van ’n gespesifiseerde gebeurtenis. Die Maatskappywet 71 van 2008 bied weinig leiding oor die regsaard van omskepping en standaardkommentare ontleed nie die stappe betrokke by die omskepping van omskepbare sekuriteite nie. Die standaardwerk oor maatskappy-sekretariële praktyk bied verduidelikings wat nie oral strook met die wet en regulasies nie. Sorgvuldige ontleding van die verspreide bepalings wat wel na omskepbare sekuriteite verwys is dus noodsaaklik. Hierdie bepalings handel spesifiek oor gevalle waar die omskepbare instrument in ’n aandeel omskep kan word. Die wet bevat verskeie aanduidings dat omskepping nie ’n magiese transformasie is waar die bronsekuriteit plotseling die doelsekuriteit word nie, maar dat ’n nuwe sekuriteit ter vervanging van die oue uitgereik word. Dit blyk duidelik uit artikel 42(3)(b) wat bepaal dat die direksiebesluit om sekuriteite wat in aandele omskepbaar is uit te reik, terselfdertyd die besluit is om doelaandele uit te reik waarin dit omskep mag word. Soortgelyke aanduidings verskyn in artikel 40(1)(b) wat verwys na die uitreik van aandele ingevolge omskeppingsregte wat aan voorheen uitgereikte sekuriteite kleef en in artikel 41(4)(a)(ii) wat by die berekening van ’n persentasie in artikel 41(3) verwys na die stemreg van aandele wat uitgereik staan te word in ’n omskepping. Hierdie konstruksie strook ook met die noterings- vereistes van die JSE Bpk. Die vraag ontstaan dan op welke wyse van die bronsekuriteit ontslae geraak word en wat presies die reëls rondom die uitreiking van die doelaandele is. Die outeur argumenteer dat die bronsekuriteite slegs onttrek word as uitgereikte aandele maar dat hul steeds deel van die maatskappy se gemagtigde aandele bly en dat wysiging van die akte van inlywing dus nie nodig is nie. Wat uitreiking van die doelaandele betref voorsien die wet dat enige aandele wat moontlik mettertyd as doelaandele uitgereik sal moet word, reeds deel van die gemagtigde aandele moet uitmaak wanneer die bronsekuriteite uitgereik word. Dit dien ter beskerming van die houer van die omskepbare instrument. In die gewone gang van sake vind uitreiking van die doelaandele dus plaas sonder om die maatskappy se gemagtigde kapitaal te raak en word die transaksie bloot in die sekuriteiteregister gereflekteer waar die uitgereikte aandele van die doelklas verhoog word. Daar is egter wel oorgangsprobleme weens die feit dat die 1973-Maatskappywet die uitreiking van omskepbare instrumente, die uiteensetting van gemagtigde aandele, asook die beskikbaarheid van pariwaarde-aandele anders hanteer as die huidige wet. Dit is jammer dat die omskeppingsregte van voorafbestaande omskepbare instrumente nie voldoende deur die oorgangsmaatreëls beskerm word nie.

Abstract:
AbstractIn light of recent improvements in the transparency of the corporate bond market, we examine the relation between high frequency returns on individual stocks and bonds. In contrast to the authors of previous literature, we employ comprehensive transactions data for both classes of securities. We find that hourly stock returns lead bond returns for nonconvertible junk- and BBB-rated bonds, and that stock returns lead bond returns for convertible bonds in all rating classes. Most of the predictable nonconvertible bonds are issued by companies in financial distress, while the predictable convertible bonds are those with conversion options more deeply in-the-money. These results indicate that the corporate bond market is less informationally efficient than the stock market, notwithstanding the recent improvements in bond market transparency and associated reductions in corporate bond transaction costs.

Abstract:
Purpose – To advise companies of a recent SEC no-action letter relating to tender and exchange offers for certain debt securities. Design/methodology/approach – Reviews various conditions allowing an issuer to use a shortened timeframe in which certain debt tender/exchange offers need be kept open for as few as five business days. Findings – The abbreviated debt tender/exchange offer structure contemplated by the no-action letter provides a more efficient mechanism for conducting debt tender/exchange offers in certain circumstances. Practical implications – Issuers conducting a debt tender/exchange offer should consider whether the new abbreviated structure is more effective in achieving their objectives than the more traditional structures. Originality/value – Practical guidance from experienced securities regulatory lawyers that gives an overview of important developments in debt tender/exchange offer practice.

Abstract:
<span>Accounting for convertible bonds (CBs) has been a source of controversy for more than two decades. The main question relates to the nature of CBs. Should they be defined as: 1) debt; 2) equity; or 3) hybrid securities having both debt and equity characteristics? The disagreements revolve around the definition of several financial statement elements and fundamental concepts of accounting measurement. We believe that current procedures in accounting for CBs are flawed and alternative measures of reporting and recognizing CBs are required in order to provide useful information to external users of financial statements. After a review of alternative methods of accounting for CBs, we conclude that a CB is a partially executed contract which has equity characteristics. The purchaser has committed to buy stock at a fixed price in a future time period. The seller is committed to issue stock in the future and is committed to provide a cash dividend at a fixed rate (i.e. interest) until the stock is issued. The issuance allows the buyer to receive a return of the subscription price in the future if he fails to exercise his right or if the issue is called by the seller. Our approach of accounting for CBs emphasizes the economics reality of the situation rather than accounting by recording a liability which is replaced by equity when the issue is converted.</span>
