April 22, 2020

PerpetualDiscounts now yield 6.15%, equivalent to 8.00% interest at the standard equivalency factor of 1.3x. Long corporates continue to yield 3.75%, so the pre-tax interest-equivalent spread (in this context, the “Seniority Spread”) has narrowed significantly, to 425bp from the 445bp reported April 15.
