Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

2. Cautionary Statements
Regulation G Statement
Ameren has presented certain information in this presentation on a diluted cents per share
basis. These diluted per share amounts reflect certain factors that directly impact Ameren’s
total earnings per share. 2006 non-GAAP earnings per share excludes the impact of the
severe 2006 storms and 2007 non-GAAP earnings per share guidance excludes the impact of
the severe January 2007 storms and charges that may result from commitments made to
avoid rate rollback and generation tax legislation, or the enactment of such legislation.
Ameren believes this information is useful because it enables readers to better understand
the impact of these factors on Ameren’s results of operations and earnings per share.
Forward-looking Statements
Statements made in this presentation, which are not based on historical facts, are “forward-
looking” and, accordingly, involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those discussed. Although such “forward-looking” statements have
been made in good faith and are based on reasonable assumptions, there is no assurance
that the expected results will be achieved. These statements include (without limitation)
statements as to future expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, events, conditions,
and financial performance. In connection with the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Ameren is providing this cautionary statement to
identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
anticipated. In addition to factors discussed in this presentation, Ameren’s periodic reports
filed with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 contain a list of factors and a
discussion of risk factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from
management expectations as suggested by such “forward-looking” statements. All “forward-
looking” statements included in this presentation are based upon information presently
available, and Ameren assumes no obligation to update any “forward-looking” statements.
