Top 10 Small Cap Stocks To Watch For 2019

tags:PQ,CNR,MOBI,ATAI,FCEL,ACHN,

If you are a small cap investor, you have probably seen press releases announcing a bought deal or bought deal financing - a type of financial arrangement that is also associated with IPOs. This type of financing deal occurs when an underwriter (e.g. an investment bank or a syndicate) purchases securities from an issuer (usually at a discount) before a preliminary prospectus is filed. The investment bank or underwriter then acts as principal rather than agent by basically "going long" in the security. 

The big advantage of a bought deal or bought deal financing from the issuer's perspective is that they won't have to worry about financing risk as it locks in the amount of funds to be raised which could otherwise fluctuate in an IPO on the open market (e.g. a fully marketed offering, where the underwriters have to "market" the offering to prospective buyers, only after which the price is set).
