It is a global financial market where the central government, the state governments, local government bodies (like municipalities), and corporate entities come to collect funds for meeting gaps in their revenues. The fund can be used for development, welfare projects, operational requirements, and so on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On one hand, the bond market displays the debt obligation of <a href=\"https:\/\/goldenpi.com\/blog\/bond-news\/what-is-bearer-bond\/\">bond<\/a> issuers.

Regular coupon payments are assured till maturity. The stability makes this bond market suitable for any investors with a low-risk appetite. Senior citizens, in addition to the safety of investment, can enjoy more flexibility and better terms than regular investors. High-risk investors can also participate in the bond market in an attempt to balance the risk on their <a href=\"https:\/\/goldenpi.com\/blog\/investment-guide\/investment-options-for-people-who-dont-want-to-track-markets\/\">investment<\/a> profiles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_Bond_Market\"><\/span><strong>Types of Bond Market<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The bond market can be categorised in different ways.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Based_on_BuyersNature_of_Transactions\"><\/span><strong>Based on Buyers\/Nature of Transactions<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two types of bond markets in this segment:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Primary Market:<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The bonds are initially issued here.
