Bonds

IN PRACTICE

Contribute to projects

Thanks to bonds and state loans, entrepreneurs and public authorities can raise funds to finance their projects.

YOUR BENEFITS

Coupon

When you buy a bond, you lend money to the issuer. The latter undertakes to repay this loan after an agreed period. In exchange for making your funds available, the issuer will pay you interest during the bond's term. This interest is called a coupon.

MORE INFORMATION

Manage your bonds online

You can buy, track and sell your bonds yourself without an intermediary.

Risks associated with investing in a bond

If you decide to sell your bond before maturity on the secondary market, you should be aware that its value will heavily depend on market rate developments. If the rate increases above your bond's interest rate, its value will decrease as it will be less sought after on the secondary market. On the other hand, if the rate decreases, your bond's value will increase.

A bond is also exposed to inflation risk. This means that an increase in inflation leads to a loss of return for all savers and investors. The higher the inflation rate, the greater the risk of a negative real rate (nominal rate corrected for inflation).

In the event of the issuer's bankruptcy or restructuring imposed by the resolution authority to avoid bankruptcy, you may lose all or part of your investment.

All information on the main risks associated with bonds can be found on the "Bonds" knowledge sheet. Are you considering investing in a specific bond? You can find a detailed description of all its characteristics and the risks it presents in the documentation and prospectus dedicated to it.

INVESTING IN BONDS

Do you want to invest in a new issue or an existing bond?

Subscribe to a new issue

You can buy a new issue on the primary market. This is the market where new bonds can be purchased at a fixed price during a predetermined subscription period.

View the offer on the primary market

Buy an existing bond

On the secondary market, you can buy bonds after the subscription period and resell them before maturity.

The price you pay or receive for a bond on the secondary market depends on supply and demand. It may be lower or higher than the initial issue price.

You can buy an existing bond via Easy Banking Web, your usual contact person or the Easy Banking Centre.
