Multiple Capital Structure

Multiple Capital Structure - The separation of a company's common stock into multiple classes, such as class A, and class B. The compound capital structure may also include the bond issues as well. As with the stock, there may be varying levels of bond issues involved that connected with specific projects currently in progress. Each of the bond installments may carry different types of benefits, allowing the corporation to attract a wider range of investors. This produces several levels of investment by offering shares that carry certain rewards over the ownership of other classes of the common stock. A company then issues the shares.
