RBA Glossary definition for bond
bond – In general terms, a bond is a statement of debt with a medium to long term to maturity at the time it is issued. The holder of a bond is a lender to the issuer. As such, the statement gives the issuer an obligation to provide the holder with an income payment and/or a stream of income payments over the life of the bond and to repay the principal. The risk that the issuer cannot fulfil their obligation varies from issuer to issuer and over time.
