Bridge to bond facilities

Bridge to bond facilities What are they? A bridge to bond facility is a type of acquisition financing where the buyer requires the certainty of a fully committed financing package, but which is intended to be replaced in the future with a mid- to long-term financing in the form of high yield bonds. In markets where acquisitions typically do not have a financing condition, a bridge financing package (which is available to be drawn if necessary) is often a key component to a successful bid. This Practice Note focuses on bridge to high yield bond financing. However, investment-grade borrowers also commonly use bridge facilities for acquisitions. Bridge commitments for investment-grade borrowers differ in many ways, including: lower pricing, much less restrictive covenants (the terms often follow the borrower’s existing credit facilities) and the securities demand mechanic may not be included (or if included, it may only be triggered by ratings downgrade). Bridge commitments for investment grade borrowers may also have longer maturities (or extension rights exercisable by...

Does an order for security for costs operate to stay the proceedings?

Does an order for security for costs operate to stay the proceedings? Security for costs In litigation, the usual position in relation to costs is that the losing party will be ordered to pay the other side's recoverable costs. Such costs may be substantial, especially when dealing with cases involving a foreign element which gives rise to additional costs, eg travel, expert evidence on law, etc. While a defendant may be confident of their ability to defend the claim, they may nevertheless have concerns about potential difficulties in seeking to recover costs provided for in any costs order against the claimant. The purpose of a security for costs order, an interim remedy, is to alleviate that concern by requiring the claimant to pay money into court, or to provide some other form of security, as a precondition to being able to continue with the claim. For further guidance, see Practice Note: Security for costs—what is it, its use and the court's discretion. Prior to making an...

FTT allows SDLT repayment claim under paragraph 34 of Schedule 10 to the Finance Act 2003 (FA 2003) beyond time limit for claims made under FA 2003, s 44(9) (Candy v HMRC)

Tax analysis: In Candy, the First-tier Tax Tribunal (FTT) decided that paragraph 34 of Sch 10 to the Finance Act 2003 (FA 2003) provides a remedy when no other relief is available and therefore permitted the taxpayer (C) to claim relief for SDLT paid on a contract that was substantially performed but not completed despite relief under another provision, FA 2003, s 44(9), being out of time since that provision required the relief to be claimed by amending the return.
