Insights

This significant capital restructuring initiative by Zions Bancorporation involves a $500 million subordinated notes offering at 6.816% fixed rate, transitioning to a floating rate of Compounded SOFR plus 2.830% after 2034. The bank is strategically using these proceeds to optimize its capital structure by redeeming $373 million in preferred stock (Series G, I and J) and $88 million in existing subordinated notes.

This refinancing move demonstrates proactive capital management, potentially reducing the bank's overall cost of capital given current market conditions. The replacement of preferred stock with subordinated debt could improve the bank's capital efficiency while maintaining regulatory capital requirements. The fixed-to-floating rate structure provides interest rate risk management benefits, with the floating rate component offering protection against future rate increases after 2034.
