Bonds may have fixed interest rates that stay the same throughout the life of the bond, or they may have floating rates that change.A corporate bond is a debt security issued by a corporation and sold to investors. Corporate bonds are considered to have a higher risk than government bonds.As the investor owns a bond, he receives interest from the issuer until the bond matures. At that point, the investor can reclaim the face value of the bond.
Corporate bonds are investments made to corporations that function much like certificates of deposit, except that they are not government-insured in any way (like with FDIC). For example, if you pay $20,000 for a corporate bond for two years, with a 5% APR, then, after two years, they should pay you $22,050. However, unlike with certificates of deposit, the government won't pay you back just because the corporation can't. They make up for that by offering a higher interest rate than CD's generally do, but they're paying for risk. As such, you should not put all your eggs in one basket; diversify your investments.
