| 1. ''Securities - debt''.
| | ISO currency code for the Hong Kong Dollar. |
| | |
| In the context of securities, a bond is a formal longer-term debt investment, usually tradeable, issued by a borrowing organisation and bought by a lender (= debt investor).
| |
| | |
| | |
| The bond is usually administered by a trustee.
| |
| | |
| Bonds typically require the issuer to repay the amount borrowed plus interest over a designated period of time.
| |
| | |
| The current market yield on the bond is both (1) the market rate of return to the debt investor and (2) the pre-tax market cost to the issuer of debt capital.
| |
| | |
| Issuers of bonds include a wide range of corporate and public sector entities, including central governments.
| |
| | |
| | |
| 2. ''Trade finance - credit support''.
| |
| | |
| In trade finance, a bond is an instrument issued by a bank or an insurance company, in favour of a buyer, on behalf of a supplier, as additional assurance to the buyer that the supplier will perform its obligations under the supply contract.
| |
| | |
| Such a bank bond or insurance company bond will be supported by an indemnity issued by the supplier in favour of the bank or insurance company.
| |
| | |
| | |
| Examples include advance payment bonds, bid bonds, customs bonds, performance bonds and retention bonds.
| |
| | |
| In this context, the terms "bond" and "guarantee" are often used interchangeably.
| |
| | |
| | |
| 3. ''Risk management - guarantee.''
| |
| | |
| A guarantee provided by one party to another.
| |
| | |
| | |
| 4. ''Risk management - collateral.''
| |
| | |
| An amount of money provided as security for a guarantee.
