Whenever Companies, Organizations or Governments need money they can go for a loan. This loan either they can borrow from the banks at their prevailing interest rates but may have to follow certain rules and provide certain collateral for getting those loans. Alternatively, they can also get loans in the form of Bonds. Companies or Governments sells the bonds to the Public in the market to get the required money. Banks also participate in case of Government Bonds.<\/span><\/p>\n

“A bond, a fixed-income<\/span> security, is a debt<\/span> instrument created to raise capital<\/span>. They are essentially loan<\/span> agreements between the bond issuer<\/span> and an investor, in which the bond issuer is obligated to pay a specified amount of money<\/span> at specified future dates.<\/strong>“<\/span><\/p>\n
