SWS served as senior manager for the Great Lakes Water Authority’s $1.03 billion 2026 Water Supply and Sewage Disposal System Revenue and Revenue Refunding Bond transaction, marking the culmination of over $1 billion in total debt service savings since the Authority’s inception in 2016. This was SWS’s fifth consecutive senior managed transaction for GLWA.

This effort will fund a variety of capital improvement projects across GLWA’s service area infrastructure which provides water treatment services to nearly 40% of Michigan Residents, and wastewater treatment services to about 30% of the state.
