Flip-Flop Bond or Note
|
(1) A flexible, variable rate instrument which lets the issuer shorten or lengthen the term of the note to reflect rate opportunities which are available on the rate reset date. (2) An instrument with an embedded option that allows an investor to switch between two types of securities. For example, between a long-term and a short-term fixed rate note, or between a note and equity.
