| | Convertible bond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A simple method for calculating the value of a convertible involves calculating the present value of future interest and principal payments at the cost of debt and adds the present value of the warrant. | | | However, in exchange for the benefit of the reduced interest payment, the value of shareholder's equity is reduced due to the expected dilution should the convertible bondholders convert their bonds into new shares. | | | From a valuation perspective, a convertible bond consists of two assets: a bond and a warrant. |

| | The Convertible Bond |
| | In the Western countries, convertible bonds tend to be issued by smaller and more speculative companies, because it is costly to assess their business risks and there are concerns that the company management may not act in the bondholders' interest. | | | Convertible bonds give their holders an option to exchange each bond for a pre-specified number of shares of common stock of the company under certain conditions. | | | The Convertible bond as a financial product is not a completely new concept to the Chinese market, but as more companies issue convertible bonds, a larger market would pique demand for new talents. |

| | Entrepreneur: Taking a spin - investing in convertible bonds |
| | Convertibles also offer comparatively less security than straight bonds because their price is more volatile since their value is linked to the price of the underlying common shares. | | | Convertible bonds are long-term debt instruments and have features common to all bonds. | | | Many convertible bond investors track the issuer's common stock, having purchased the bonds to be able to participate in the equity market with some downside protection. |

| | Convertible bonds and preferreds are fixed-income instruments that are exchangeable into a predetermined amount of an underlying common stock. | | | As the underlying common stock rises, the equity feature allows the convertible's price to advance; as the underlying common stock falls, the fixed-income component helps to cushion a possible decline in the convertible price. | | | This hybrid nature allows convertible investors to earn current income without foregoing the long-term call on equities that is normally associated with holding common stocks. |

| | Essentially, convertibles are fixed-income investments that companies issue, which offer the comforting income of a bond, but can also be exchanged for shares of company stock should an investor wish to capitalize on a strong stock market. | | | Morningstar stats also show that convertible bond funds are generally more expensive, averaging 1.5% of their assets in expenses, compared to 1.3% for the average large-cap blend fund. | | | With the stock market being so volatile in recent years, and with Treasury bills and corporate bonds paying microscopic interest rates, convertible bond fund investors have had a carnival so far in 2003. |
