perpetual preferred equity, accounting for over 70% of all new preferred
issues.[http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m4130/is_2_29/ai_67720678 Raising Capital

the company’s assets than common stockholders. Preferred shareholders always
receive their dividends first and, in the event the company goes bankrupt,
preferred shareholders are paid off before the holders of common stock. In general, there are four different types of preferred
stock: cumulative preferred, non-cumulative, participating, and convertible.

companies. The rating for preferreds is generally lower than for bonds
because preferred dividends do not carry the same guarantees as
interest payments from bonds and because preferred-stock holders' claims are junior to those of all
creditors.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-preferred-stock-toolkit.html
