Explanation:

Convertible debts are a type of long term capital financing that has the option of converting the debt into stock or equity.  Corporations issue convertible debts to balance equity and liabilities.

A convertible debt will usually have a lower interest because the holder of the debt has the option of converting it to stock. A conversion occurs after a certain period.
