Eagle Point Credit Company Preferred Stock 6.5% 06/30/31 is a fixed-income financial instrument known as preferred stock, issued by Eagle Point Credit Company. Unlike common stocks, this preferred stock offers a fixed dividend yield of 6.5%, providing a stable income stream to investors until its maturity date on June 30, 2031. One of the primary functions of this preferred stock is to raise capital for Eagle Point Credit Company, which specializes in investing in collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). The 6.5% preferred stock pays dividends to holders, typically before common stock dividends are distributed. It holds significance primarily among income-focused investors seeking steady returns rather than capital appreciation. This preferred stock issuance plays an important role in the financial market as it combines features of both debt and equity, offering potential benefits like priority over common stock in dividend payments and potential advantages in corporate liquidation scenarios, while still having equity-like characteristics. This balance helps Eagle Point Credit Company manage its capital structure efficiently while providing potential investors participation in the income generated from its CLO-focused investment strategies.
