Vulture investors are individuals and institutions that come to the aid of, or prey upon, troubled companies. Smart vultures don’t simply buy common shares in a company that is trending toward bankruptcy. Instead, they’ll lend money at extraordinarily high interest rates, or demand a chunk of equity in return for the loan, or demand to buy stock at a discount to the current market price. Frequently, such transactions cause a dilution of the value of the shares held by existing shareholders and create a situation in which the new investors have better claims on a company’s assets and income than do existing common shareholders. 3, record 16, English, - vulture%20investor

Distressed debt investors are sometimes referred to as vultures because they specialize in buying up the bonds of struggling companies in the hopes of seeing the bond value rising in a restructuring or recovery of a business.
