Is the classification of ordinary corporate bonds guaranteed?
Unsecured and secured, in which secured can be divided into financial institution guarantee (bank guarantee) and asset guarantee (securities, movable property or immovable property provided by the issuing company to the entrusted bank).
Coupon rate decided.
The design of coupon rate is very flexible, and it is generally issued at a fixed interest rate and a floating interest rate. The fixed interest rate means that the coupon rate of corporate bonds is fixed at a certain level during the duration of corporate bonds, while the floating interest rate is determined by pre-selecting the coupon rate interest rate and the range of increase and decrease. During the duration of ordinary corporate bonds, the coupon rate of the current period is periodically re-determined according to the level of the pricing index at that time.
We can use the following general formula to express the coupon rate design of bonds: c = a * INDEX+b, where c stands for coupon rate of bonds, INDEX is the market reference interest rate, coefficient A is called leverage, and coefficient B is the overweight part of interest rate, which can usually be used to reflect the credit risk of the issuing company.
(1)a=0) A = 0 is a fixed bond, that is, a fixed interest rate bond with coupon rate equal to b%.
(2)a & gt; 0 is a traditional floating bond, that is, the coupon rate of the bond is consistent with the change direction of the index interest rate. The bond interest rate of floating rate bills will increase with the increase of market interest rate, and because the increase of market interest rate will reduce the price of general bonds, many market participants also call floating rate bills bearish bonds.
(3)a 1, which we call ultra-floating interest rate notes. This coupon rate design increases the influence of index interest rate changes, highlights the risk-return characteristics of bonds, and makes bonds that were originally regarded as low-risk and low-return become high-risk financial instruments. For example, if the coupon rate of a bond is set to 3BA-50bp, the coupon rate of the bond will rise or fall by three percentage points for every increase or decrease of the BA interest rate.

Risk of prepayment: If the bond gives the issuing company the right to repurchase, investors will face the risk that the issuing company will exercise the right to repurchase and prepay when the interest rate drops.
