"The J.P. Morgan 2026 Global Leveraged Finance Conference is being held..."

Leveraged finance is the use of large amounts of borrowed money, often through high-yield bonds or loans, to fund big moves like buyouts, acquisitions, or major restructuring. It matters to investors because the higher borrowing raises a company’s fixed payments and default risk — similar to a person taking a big mortgage to buy a house — which can amplify both potential returns and losses and influence a firm’s stock and bond safety.

webcasts technical

Webcasts are live or recorded audio and video broadcasts delivered over the internet, often used for earnings calls, investor presentations, and corporate announcements. They let investors see and hear company leaders directly—like watching a live TV show or listening to a podcast—so you can assess tone, get extra detail beyond written reports, and hear answers to questions in real time; that direct access can influence how investors value a company.
