Foreign Banks Financing in the United States, published by IFLR, provides a timely discussion of the approaches used by foreign banks to raise capital from US investors.

Foreign banks may rely on exempt offerings, such as 4(a)(2) offerings, 144A/Reg S offerings and 3(a)(2) offerings, or registered offerings to issue securities to US investors. We discuss each of the possible offering formats, as well as the practical considerations for issuers and their intermediaries when establishing or accessing a medium-term note program, a commercial paper program, a covered bond program, or a structured products program.

As foreign banks contemplate the potential need to raise additional capital, this guide offers an overview of regulatory consideration.
