What is a corporate bond?

A corporate bond represents an obligation of a company (the issuer) to pay the corporate bond holders periodic interest, typically at a fixed rate (the coupon), and to repay the amount of the loan (the principal) at a specified time in the future (the maturity date).

Like government securities, most Corporate Bonds have a par value of $1,000, pay interest semi-annually, and are available in a wide range of short-, intermediate- and long term maturity structures.
