In a 'bought deal' scenario, if the underwriting bank cannot find enough buyers at the 'reoffer' price of 99.85 and is forced to sell the remaining bonds at 99.20, what has happened to the bank's economics?
- The bank is legally permitted to cancel the issued bonds and re-launch the entire deal.
- The bank's trading loss on the bonds is automatically reimbursed by the central bank's discount window.
- The bank has suffered a loss on its unsold inventory, reducing its overall profit from the deal.
- Once the deal is committed, the bank may simply invoice the issuer for the 0.65-point pricing difference.
