contingent convertible bond (CoCo)
United Kingdom
A form of hybrid security that converts from being a bond (typically subordinated (subordinated loan notes)) into an equity security in the issuer upon the happening of a defined regulatory trigger point, for example, a fall in the issuer's Tier 1 capital. Because of these characteristics, such instruments may also be described as contingent capital instruments. Before conversion, investors receive a coupon payment. Following conversion, the instrument pays dividends.
