Learn more about Bonds

A groundbreaking new financial website called InvestinginbondsEurope.org, which offers retail investors free access to comprehensive, non-commercial and unbiased education, was launched on 11 December 2008. The site is the first of its kind providing fixed income market information in English, German, French, Italian and Spanish in a pan-European context.

The site covers a range of comprehensive, easy-to-use educational topics such as “Bond Basics,” “Types of Bonds,” and “Investor’s Checklist” to help visitors learn about bonds. It also provides market-at-a-glance data, end of day price information for selected bonds, indices, economic indicators, benchmark rates, news, in depth analysis, calculators, a glossary, commentaries and a resource centre.

InvestinginbondsEurope.org is designed to deliver non-commercial, unbiased educational basics about bonds and the transparency that comes with clear and relevant information. Data provided by the site focuses on the European government, sub-sovereign, corporate and collateralised bond markets.

HSBC was one of a number of partners who contributed the resources to build InvestinginbondsEurope.org.
