A covered warrant (Swedish: warrant) is an exchange-traded financial instrument giving the holder the right to buy or sell an underlying asset, such as a share, at a set strike price within a certain period. It is usually issued by a bank, not by the company itself.
It should not be confused with a warrant (teckningsoption) issued by the company, which gives the right to subscribe for new shares, can cause dilution and must be entered in the share ledger. Exercising a covered warrant creates no new shares and leaves the company's share ledger unchanged.

A warrant gives the right to subscribe for new shares in a company at a set price.
