A small clubby world: High Yield Bonds, 2007-01-11
Given that high yield bonds make up fully 25% of U.S. public corporate debt, and 19% of European corporate debt, you'd think there's be more and better books written on the subject.

Think again.

The best material on high yield bonds is written by the underwriters and research departments of large investment banks. It is a market of closed information. Why?

Fees for issuance of a high yield bond are higher than equity IPO fees. Load fees for investing in a high yield bond funds are higher than other fixed income funds.

Nevertheless, this is an indispensable book for those who wish to enter this last bastion and clubby private world of finance: the small, high stakes high yield bond market.

But it desperately needs an update.
