This material will focus on various topics beginning with the basics, such as: what are municipal bonds and who can issue such bonds. In addition, our speakers will also discuss the different types of bonds, the bond financing process, documentation relating to bonds, and the importance of utilizing municipal bonds to finance public projects versus paying cash. The material will explore what types of entities may issue municipal bonds and analyze what types of municipal bonds those entities may issue. The topic will go into detail regarding the distinguishing characteristics of the different types of municipal bonds, and provide a step-by-step outline of a bond transaction, complete with strategic considerations and a discussion of the various legal documents involved and the specific purposes they serve. It is necessary to have a bond attorney when you are utilizing a bond to ensure you have the right expertise.
