Intermediate Bond
(redirected from Intermediate Term Bond)

    0.01 sec.
Intermediate Bond
A debt security with a maturity in the medium-term. While there is no set definition of what constitutes the medium-term, it is generally accepted that intermediate bonds are those that mature somewhere between one and 15 years. One of the most common intermediate bonds, the U.S. Treasury Note, usually has a maturity of 10 years. Intermediate bonds have become increasingly popular for what were formerly called long-term investors. This is especially true among Treasury securities; Treasury Notes have increasingly replaced Treasury Bonds as benchmarks of the bond market.

intermediate bond
A debt security with a maturity of 7 to 15 years. Also called medium-term bond. See also long bond, short bond.
