Exchangeable bonds maker a comeback in the region
Article Abstract:
Exchangeable bonds are becoming more popular in Asia since the 1997-1998 financial crisis because they offer a low-risk way to invest in emerging companies. Bonds issued by larger, more stable companies may be converted to stock in a weaker subsidiary, or simply brought to maturity and cashed in with interest.
