Secondary Equity Offerings: Structure & Regulation Update

If you are working with seconday equity offerings or would like to, this is the course for you.

Secondary equity offerings, such as rights issues, placings and open offers, have evolved considerably in the last few years. The challenging market conditions have meant that the structures for these offerings have had to change with increased use of deep discount rights issues and cash box placings, as well as the emergence of compensatory open offers, cornerstone investors and new underwriting procedures.

The recent changes made to the Prospectus Rules, which came into effect on July 2012, also have had an impact on secondary equity offerings. This course will help clarify some of those changes and look at the way recent secondary equity offerings have been undertaken and regulated. Participants will be considering the advantages and disadvantages for the issuer of each type of offering. There will also be an overview of market trends, marketing shares and price setting mechanisms. Particpants will learn about the legal documents which are involved in the process, as well.
