Sushi Bond

You run a Japanese company that makes giant, novelty animal mascot heads that people wear over their faces like helmets. You're the third largest company in Japan. You want to raise money overseas to fund expansion into full-body Furbee costumes.

Time to issue some sushi bonds.

These debt securities represent attempts by Japanese companies to raise money in foreign markets. They sell bonds in markets outside Japan, denominated in non-yen currencies.
