Strip Financing

From Econterms, for About.com

Definition: Strip financing is corporate financing by selling "stapled" packages of securities together that cannot be sold separately. E.g., if a firm might sell bonds only in a package that includes a standard proportion of senior subordinated debt, convertible debt, preferred, and common stock. A benefit is reduced conflict. In principle bondholders and stockholders have different interests and that can impose costs on the firm. After a strip financing, however, those groups are each made up of all the same people, so their interests coincide.
