Fixed income

Government bonds

Government bonds are tools used by governments to raise funds for infrastructure projects, social programs, and other initiatives. When investors buy these bonds, they essentially lend money to the government and, in return, receive periodic interest payments (known as the ‘coupon’) and repayment of the principal upon maturity.


Treasury bond

A Treasury bond (T-bond) is a long-term debt security issued by the US government to finance federal spending. T-bonds typically have a maturity of 10 to 30 years, providing fixed interest payments to investors every six months until the bond reaches maturity, at which point the principal is repaid.

Treasury bonds are generally regarded as a safe investment because they are backed by the US government's full faith and credit. They are also essential indicators of economic health, influencing interest rates, investment decisions, and even the stock market.

Gilts

Gilts are bonds issued by the UK government to finance public spending. They are backed by the government’s creditworthiness. Gilts provide regular interest payments to investors and return the principal at maturity.

Bunds

Bunds are long-term debt securities issued by the German government. Bunds are a benchmark for interest rates in the eurozone and are widely used by investors seeking stability.
