Nine hundredths of a percent (0.0009). It doesn’t sound like much and most of the time, it’s not. Driving from San Francisco to Los Angeles, it doesn’t even get you across the Bay Bridge. On an acre of land it’s less than a seven-by-seven plot. In an Olympic-sized swimming pool, less than an inch of water.
But bonds are different and an additional 0.09% on the interest rate adds up to real money. For example, on a typical $20 million bond deal, an extra nine hundredths of a percent raises your borrowing costs by close to $500,000. And on a $100 million deal, it’s $2,000,000 down the drain.
When you’re dealing with millions of dollars in taxpayers’ money, it pays to have an independent financial advisor like Dale Scott & Company dedicated to making sure you obtain the lowest interest rates possible. Whether you’re selling your bonds by competitive bid or through a negotiated sale with a pre-selected underwriter, having someone you can rely on to get the best price only makes sense.
Of course, it doesn’t matter how good your financial advisor is unless your bond passes. For nearly two decades, we’ve led the industry in developing successful strategies for school district and community college district general obligation bonds.
Election advice. Survey research. Tax-rate extensions. Independent campaign management. These are just a few of the innovations developed by Dale Scott & Company that are now commonly used throughout the State. Sure, imitation is the greatest form of flattery but it’s still just an imitation. The proof? In the June 2006 election, our win record on general obligation bonds was over 70%. The rest of the competition? Less than 59%.
