Press Release

 

Oldest Minority Owned Investment Bank Named Co-Manager of Nations Two Largest Issuers of Municipal Debt

Grigsby & Associates Becomes Members of The Underwriting Team of The Two Largest Bond Issuers In The U.S.

 

San Francisco, California, April 8, 2009—Investment Bank, Grigsby & Associates Inc., today announced that the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (DASNY) has named them co-manager on $772.6 million of debt to be issued this year. DASNY provides financing and construction services to public and private universities, not-for-profit healthcare facilities and other institutions that serve the public good, and was  the second largest issuer  of municipal bonds in the nation last year (after the No. 1 issuer, the State of California). As a DASNY co-manager, Grigsby & Associates will take a lead role assisting the issuer and other members of the underwriting team in marketing these bonds to retail and institutional investors.

 

Since 2003, Grigsby & Associates has been a member of the State of CaliforniaÂ’s slate of underwriters. Being named co-manager for DASNY, Grigsby & Associates is now a member of the underwriting teams of the two largest issuers in the U.S. 

 

Grigsby & Associates also announced the following:

 

·      Grigsby & Associates served as co-senior manager on an $800 million issue for the Regents of the University of California. The issue closed two weeks ago. The co-senior manager has the second highest underwriting participation after the senior manager.

 

·         Grigsby & Associates also participated as a co-manager on the $6.54 billion State of California General Obligation (GO) Bond issue that closed earlier this week.

 

·         Earlier this month Grigsby & Associates was named as a co-manager in the newly picked underwriting syndicate to the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation.
