BondLink created this document to help you understand what you should be doing between bond sales for your IR Program.

IR Best Practices: Around the Bond Sale

Preparing for an upcoming bond sale requires a lot of work and time; from coordinating with the rating agencies to structuring the bonds and so much more.

This document will give you best practices for using the BondLink Platform to optimize your IR efforts around your sale.

WhenToAnnounce

When to Announce a Bond Sale to Maximize Investor Interest

We analyzed hundreds of bond sales that were announced through our platform over 18 months. Our goal was to understand if issuers like you could increase their buy-side engagement with a longer announcement period before a sale. In the report, you’ll learn the optimal time to announce your bond sale, what valuable investor activities you can increase, and how timeliness impacts your cost of borrowing capital.

More Transparency Leads to More Investor Engagement

We analyzed years of investor activity across hundreds of our issuers’ investor relations websites to answer two questions:
  1. Can municipal issuers benefit from more investor engagement by enhancing disclosures?
  2. If so, which disclosures generate the most investor activity?
