Exchangeable Notes

Definition:

A Debt Security that the holder may exchange for the stock of an entity that is not the same entity as the issuer of the note. The number of shares the holder receives and the price of those shares are determined when the exchangeable note is issued. The main difference between a Convertible Bond and an Exchangeable Note is that on conversion of a Convertible Bond the investor receives the shares of the issuer.
