In June 2019, GBPC redeemed all outstanding preferred shares, replacing them with $10 million USD debt at 4 per cent and $10 million USD preferred shares at 6 per cent. The new preferred shares are redeemable by GBPC after June 17, 2021, at $1,000 Bahamian per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends and are entitled to a 6.0 per cent per annum fixed cumulative preferential dividend to be paid semi-annually, with the first payment scheduled for January 2020.
