| Hello there Peter. Well, what issuer agrees to is that it will pay back the money collected from the buyer after a certain period of time (maturity date) and with a certain interest. So, it is kind of a loan. Debt securities are bonds, deposits, commercial papers and debentures. They are less risky so it’s definitely worth investing in them, especially in corporate bonds because they give more profit. |

| Hello Peter. Some issuers also agree to pay certain amounts of money periodically, that’s what I wanted to add. It depends on type of debt security, since there are several of them. Now, most common type of debt securities is bonds. Bonds are pretty good as an investment choice, because they are less risky and they can still provide some nice income. I would suggest you to invest in government or municipal bonds, if you are interested, off course. That would be all from me. Bye! |
