RE: Retail Bond, 7 Years, Senior Secured, 8%11 Aug 2019 13:41
A terribly sad yet familiar story, thousands of retail investors, some ‘all in’?? to just one company very often in a SIPP wrapper. At some point bond dealers arrive and quite shortly after the company is firmly in the hands of the already wealthy.
Has to be said, all of these outfits: GKP, XEL etc etc clearly publish in their prospectuses that sophisticated HNWI type investors are most suitable for early phase projects.
Few read or listen, craving massive upside yet unwilling to accept capital destruction. I mean, this could actually be a buy for the very few who can calculate chance of success in all this complexity!
