Anticipation notes are of different types, and they include: Revenue anticipation notes (RANs) - It is issued with hope that not-tax revenue like state or federal aid will be the one to service the debt. Tax anticipation notes (TANs) - It is used in the expectation that there will be future collections. Bond anticipation notes (BANs) - These one functions as bridge loans and are given out when the municipality anticipates a future longer-term bond issuance to settle the anticipating note at maturity. Tax and revenue anticipation notes (TRAN) - These are paid off with a mixture of revenue and taxes.

A flood of yield-seeking capital poured into municipal debt instruments in the late 1990s, but not all cities or instruments were equally successful in attracting it. Capital gravitated toward those local governments that could readily convert the income streams of public assets into new financial instruments and that could minimize the risk of nonpayment due to the actions of nonfinancial claimants. This article follows the case of Chicago from 1996 through 2007 as the city government subsidized development projects with borrowed money using a once-obscure instrument called Tax Increment Financing (TIF). TIF allows municipalities to bundle and sell off the rights to future property tax revenues from designated parts of the city. The City of Chicago improved the appearance of these speculative instruments by segmenting and sequencing TIF debt instruments in ways that made them look less idiosyncratic and by exerting strong political control over the processes of development and property tax assessment. In doing so, Chicago not only attracted billions of dollars in global capital but also contributed to a dangerous oversupply of commercial real estate.
