Control Investment

Control investment is an investment in an issuer over which the investor is treated as having control under the applicable legal or reporting definition.

Why this matters to income investors

Control can affect influence over a borrower and may change reporting and valuation considerations.

How to use control investment in your research

Read how the investment is managed and which parties receive fees or share control. Then review the loan terms, borrower results, and reported earnings to see how the arrangement affects dividend capacity.
