Corporate Bonds – Price, Face Value, Maturity, Coupon Rate and Yield to Maturity – South Florida Business and Corporate Litigation Attorney

Russell L. Forkey

Key Words and Phrases Associated with Corporate Bonds:

The basic financial terms of a corporate bond include its price, face value (also called par value), maturity, coupon rate, and yield to maturity. Yield to maturity is a widely used measure to compare bonds. This is the annual return on the bond if held to maturity taking into account when you bought the bond and what you paid for it.

A bond often trades at a premium or discount to its face value. This can happen when market interest rates rise or fall relative to the bond’s coupon rate. If the coupon rate is higher than market interest rates, for example, then the bond will likely trade at a premium.
