LEARN MORE ABOUT BONDS TRADING
What are Bonds?
Bonds are forms of debt securities which represent loans made by lenders to borrowing entities like governments or corporations.
The appeal of bonds comes from coupon payments as an interest of your principal amount - the periodic payments you receive until the bond matures. At the end of the tenure, the bond issuer is obligated to repay the principal amount to the bondholder.
Vantage allows traders to engage in bond trading by providing Contracts for Difference (CFDs) on bonds. These CFDs allow traders access to the trading opportunities of the underlying fixed-income debt securities without requiring direct ownership of the bond. Traders can participate in this market at a fraction of cost than the actual bond price.

How are bonds different from stocks?
Bonds and stocks are two distinct financial products that are traded in the market. Bonds serve as trading instruments that represent a loan provided by an investor or trader to a borrower, typically a corporation or government body. Stocks on the other hand, represent partial ownership of a company. If the company experiences good performance, the value of your stocks could have the potential to increase based on market supply and demand. While there are some similarities between the two, given that they are both financial instruments used to raise capital, they operate in fundamentally different ways and have their own market risks. You can tap on our library of free educational materials to better understand the difference between bonds and stocks.

What is the difference between government and corporate bonds?
Government bonds and corporate bonds generally pay fixed interest rate to investors. They are issued by governments and corporations to generate funds. In exchange for the money they receive, bondholders receive regular interest payments and get back the initial amount invested when the bond reaches its maturity date.However, they also do differ in several ways:Issuer: As their names suggest, government bonds are issued by governments, either at the federal or local level; while corporate bonds are issued by corporations.Credit Risk: Government bonds are backed by the government's full faith and credit. On the other hand, corporate bonds come with a higher risk of default since companies could potentially go bankrupt and default on these loans.Interest Rate: Due to the higher risk, corporate bonds often offer higher interest rates than government bonds to compensate investors for the increased risk.
