How a bond works with us

We work out the yield

We calculate yield to maturity from the current market price and the face value, so you can compare one bond against another.

Coupons reach your account

Interest arrives on the schedule set when the bond was issued, and we credit it to your account as it is paid.

You see the credit rating

Every bond here shows the rating its issuer carries, so you can see how the market grades it before you decide.

You do not have to wait

Holding to maturity is your choice, not ours. If you want out of a bond early, you can sell it back through us.

What you are buying

A bond is a loan to a government or a company. They pay you a set rate for a set term, and we hold the bond in your account until it matures or you tell us to sell it.

Terms we offer

We hold short bills of one to three years and long bonds that run out to thirty. You choose the term that matches when you want the money back.
