Investment Banking Services

The Missouri-based government authority in Jefferson City is seeking investment banking services to manage its debt issuance and preserve its existing system through asset management. The agency needs assistance evaluating the mode of debt to be issued, specifically deciding between fixed or variable rate debt, determining the need for capitalizing interest, establishing specific redemption provisions, and choosing between serial and term bonds. Additionally, the agency requires support in reviewing and preparing critical documents such as the official statement, continuing disclosure agreement, and indentures. The selected partner will market and underwrite the bonds, as well as provide remarketing services on variable rate financings. The agency expects the provider to assist in obtaining credit ratings and enhancements, participate in credit strategy discussions, and attend credit rating agency presentations. The scope of work also includes participating in meetings and conference calls, including informational and due diligence sessions. Eligibility is restricted to onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency expects the performance of all work to occur offsite. Bidders must submit any questions regarding this opportunity no later than May 29, 2026, and the agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget.
