Another internet first>>> Ford first to sell short-term debt on Web DEARBORN, Mich., March 31 (Reuters) - Ford Motor Co. the world's second-largest auto maker, said Wednesday that it has become the first direct issuer to sell short-term, revolving debt on the Worldwide Web. Use of the Internet to sell the commercial paper opens electronic trading to investors who previously could not justify the cost of buying special equipment for electronic purchases, Ford, the second-largest direct issuer of commercial paper, said. ''Presently, four to six billion dollars of Ford Credit's commercial paper is traded in a five hour period each morning over the telephone. Now some of these trades will take place on the Internet, giving our investors greater control over their transactions,'' Paul Nichol, manager, Ford Credit Treasury, said in a news release. Nice cya on wirl, Joe!
