mandatory convertible Finance Definition
A debt issue that is converted into equity within
a certain time period, often three years. A mandatory convertible is an
attractive alternative for companies that have too much debt. Ratings agencies
typically count 80 cents out of each $1 in the mandatory convertible as equity, which helps protect the companys
debt rating. The debt can be ranked as equity because within three years the
debt will be turned into equity.
