Talk:Rights issue

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article should be linked with the German term "Kapitalerhöhung", not "Bezugsrecht".

I completely agree with the comment in German above. In the first sentence of the introduction, there should not be a link to "Secondary Market Offering", but rather to "Follow-on offering". This is due to the fact that any offering made by the company itself, apart from a Initial Price Offering (IPO) is a follow-on one (a stated in both IPO and SPO articles).

[edit] Rights offering example.

I feel that there needs to be some clarification around the 'Mr A had 100 shares at a face value of $10 and a total investment of $10,000, assuming he purchased the shares at $100 per share. Why is he paying $100 for $10 shares? I'm lost.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.41.107.13 (talk) 10:57, 4 March 2008 (UTC) 

[edit] Why

So why would one make a Rights Issue rather than just a Secondary Market Offering. What are the advantages to each? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.70.152.142 (talk) 21:32, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
