Bonds by Metra Trust

A bond is a unit of debt issued by companies and securitized as a tradeable asset that pays a fixed interest rate (coupon) to debtholders. When an entity issues a bond, they are essentially borrowing money from investors, who become the bondholders. In return, the issuer of the bond agrees to pay periodic interest payments to the bondholders and return the principal amount (the initial amount borrowed) when the bond matures. The interest pay out can be variable or floating, depending on the terms the investors sign up for.

Benefits of Bonds

Bonds provide predictable and stable income streams. In most cases, the bondholder receives the entire principal amount with interest if he/she holds the bond till maturity. Therefore, they are considered an effective way to preserve capital. Bonds can also offset highly volatile shareholdings.
