Bond Discount – Florida Bond Investment Breach of Fiduciary Duty, Breach of Contract and Negligence FINRA Arbitration and State and Federal Litigation Attorney:

A bond discount is the amount by which the market price of a bond is lower than its face value.  Outstanding bonds with fixed coupons go to discounts when market interest rates rise.  Discounts are also caused when supply exceeds demand and when a bond’s credit rating is reduced.  When opposite conditions exist and market price is higher than face value, the difference is termed a bond premium.  Premiums also occur when a bond issue with a call feature is redeemed prior to maturity and the condholder is compensated for lost interest.
