Wow ! If true, this must be a first in SGX with a share + 10% coupon bond maturing in 2060 deal.

Quote:The IPO is the first such structured offering in Singapore wherein the company will offer shares stapled with a loan note. This means the shares and the loan note will be bundled as one stapled security and cannot be traded or sold separately

What if it's a $4 Share + $1 Bond (10% coupon) and they don't intend to pay any Dividend for the Share (since they have debts to service or pay down)? Neither is it projected to grow? Still attractive? Big Grin
