ISSUE OF GLOBAL NOTES Clause Samples
The 'Issue of Global Notes' clause defines the process by which a single, consolidated note representing the entire issuance of securities is created and held, typically by a central depositary. In practice, instead of issuing individual certificates to each investor, the issuer creates a global note that is registered in the name of a nominee for a clearing system such as Euroclear or Clearstream, and investors hold beneficial interests through their accounts with these systems. This approach streamlines the administration of large bond issuances, reduces paperwork, and facilitates efficient trading and settlement among participants.
