📜 An In-Depth Look at Debt Securities
A debt security represents a formal, written agreement or promise to repay a debt at a specified time and under specified terms. Essentially, it's a financial instrument that represents money borrowed by the issuer (the debtor) from the investor (the creditor). The investor lends money to the issuer and, in return, receives a certificate (or electronic record) promising regular interest payments and the return of the principal amount (the face value) upon maturity.
Debt securities are a primary way for governments and corporations to raise capital.
