Bonds Investment
Make Better Investments with Insurance Bonds
Investment bond or insurance bonds are meant for investment purposes. These are issued by the insurance companies. They are in nature of a single premium life assurance policy and are a common form of investment bonds in most of the countries. Their offering of minimum guaranteed income for life of the plan holder makes them one of the most sought after investment options. Other useful features of
insurance bonds
include tax deferred status; access to expensive investment links like guaranteed profit funds and reduction of inheritance tax liability on an estate. Tax deferred investment is an investment in which some or all taxes are paid at a future date and not in the year when investment produces income. These types of investments refer to retirement accounts which allow deferral of taxes on contributions and growth or both, and, taxes are not paid until the withdrawal of funds during the retirement.
The bond which is issued by a corporation to raise money in order to expand its business is called corporation bond. A corporate bond is referred to long-term debt instruments with maturity date falling at least a year after the issuing date. Most of the corporate bonds are enlisted on major exchanges, and therefore, are called listed bonds. But, despite being listed on exchanges, the majority of trading in corporate bonds takes place in decentralized and dealer- based markets. So, if someone has invested in corporate bonds, it becomes important to have the current up-to-date information on issues like
corporate bond prices
and yields. Some corporate bonds allow the issuer to redeem the debt before its maturity date, where as, convertible bonds allow the investors to convert the bond into equity. But, corporate bonds generally have a higher default risk. The risk analysis is done on various factors like current market conditions, corporation issuing the bond and rating of the company. Due to high risk involved, corporate bond holders are compensated by a higher yield rate than any other government bond. There are other risks involved in corporate bonds like Credit Spread Risk, Interest Rate Risk, Liquidity Risk, Supply Risk, Inflation Risk and Tax Change Risk.
Other than insurance and corporate bonds, there are treasury bonds which are considered as debt obligations issued by U.S.Governement and have more than 7 years of maturity period. Treasury bonds are exempt from state and local taxes and the interest is paid semi-annually. These securities have the longest maturity period from 10 to 30 years.
10 year treasury bonds
have a term of more than one year, but not more than 10 years. The 30-year Treasury bond is also called the long bond. The payment of interest is on 6 months basis, and that too at a fixed coupon rate. Similarly, both the federal and the state governments issue the treasury bonds in some countries. For example, the
nsw treasury bonds
issued by the state of New South Wales in Australia are also considered to be an ideal investment due to government guarantees.
