Correction: Illinois sells $1.79 billion bonds via bookrunners Jefferies, BMO, Duncan-Williams

An article in the May 2 edition of the Prospect News Municipals Daily misidentified Duncan-Williams Inc.'s role in the sale by the State of Illinois of $1.79 billion of general obligation bonds. The investment bank was a joint bookrunner along with Jefferies & Co. and BMO Capital Markets. A corrected version of the story follows:
