Bond
A debt security where an investor loans money to a borrower for interest and the return of the principal. They are low-risk but offer lower returns.
More Details
A bond is a type of debt security that allows an investor to lend money to a government, municipality, or corporation in exchange for interest payments over a specified period of time. At the end of the bond's term, the issuer repays the principal amount of the loan to the investor.
Example
