Self study №15 Task 1. The bond market—often called the debt market, fixed-income market, or credit market—is the collective name given to all trades and issues of debt securities. Governments typically issue bonds in order to raise capital to pay down debts or fund infrastructural improvements.
Publicly traded companies issue bonds when they need to finance business expansion projects or maintain ongoing operations.
The bond market broadly describes a marketplace where investors buy debt securities that are brought to the market by either governmental entities or corporations.
National governments generally use the proceeds from bonds to finance infrastructural improvements and pay down debts.
Companies issue bonds to raise the capital needed to maintain operations, grow their product lines, or open new locations.
Bonds are either issued on the primary market, which rolls out new debt, or traded on the secondary market, in which investors may purchase existing debt via brokers or other third parties.
Bonds tend to be less volatile and more conservative than stock investments, but they also have lower expected returns.
