Raymond James Healthcare Public Finance Superday

Just got invited to a RJ virtual Superday for Healthcare Public Finance, can anyone tell me more about this unit/about HC PubFin in general? I understand it's the best PubFin group to get into, but other than that don't have much knowledge about the area other than that you're financing hospitals/working with governments.

Congrats on the superday! Well in terms of what you should know, public finance healthcare generally helps raise tax exempt debt in the form of municipal bonds for non-profit hospitals(most hospitals are non-profits). You should probably explore market trends in the more general municipal bond market: >Advanced refunding tax exemption elimination in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, as well as impact of removal of SALT cap >The municipal market in March,2020: volatile yields with a huge initial crash in prices and thus slowdown in issuance. However, also know the federal reserve has recently announced several actions that have led to one of the most impressive rallies in bond prices in history. >Think about how hospital credit quality will be impacted by the COVID-19 crisis, if it all. Think about how the stimulus bill helps hospitals or not.

In terms of technicals >Know how to do tax equivalent yield formula problems >Know how to explain time value of money >Be able to explain questions like would you rather take a million today or a 1.1 million a year from now >Know the difference between general obligation bonds and revenue bonds(these are the ones more applicable to healthcare issuers) >Know the differences between municipal bonds and corporate bonds(in terms of tax exemption, default risk, par value, etc)

Best of luck!

 

Hi! I just wanted to say thanks, I ended up getting the offer. Can you possibly PM me if you have time? I'm definitely interested in learning more about PubFin and the day-to-day before I start and would love for a chance to chat.
