Bonds


Bonds

Bond is one of the financial instrument which refers to security issued by a company, financial institution or Government, which offers fixed or regular payment of interest for borrowed money for a certain period of time. Very often the bond is negotiable, i.e. the ownership of the instrument can be transferred in the secondary market. This means that once the transfer agents at the bank medallion stamp the bond, it is highly liquid on the second market.


Thus a bond is a form of loan and the holder of the bond is the lender (creditor), the issuer of the bond is the borrower (debtor), and the coupon is the interest. Bonds provide the borrower with external funds to finance long-term investments. The main difference of the bond is in the length of the term of the instrument.
