What are Debt Instruments?
Paterson Securities offers its clients the opportunity to participate in one of the safest financial instruments – Debt. A debt instrument is any document used or issued for raising money, for example, a bill of exchange, bond, or promissory note. It is in essence a contractual or written promise to repay a debt.
We specialize in the offering the following services:
- Government Securities
- Bonds issued by Corporate bodies, including Banks and Public Financial Institutions
In most cases a debt instrument can be sold, traded, or otherwise used as a form of currency or barter, with the debt owed to the debt instrument's current holder. A debt instrument backed by a government agency – such as a Government of India Treasury Bond – or a highly-rated corporate bond with a fixed rupee payment may be defined as an asset. Defaulting on a debt instrument may result in the loss of the pledged collateral, or in a reduction of the credit rating of the entity which issued the debt instrument.
Benefits of investing in Debt Instruments:
- Relatively safer investment avenue
- Easily Transferable ownership of debt
- Guaranteed rate of return (coupon rate)
