yield basis

    0.06 sec.
yield basis
A method of quoting a bond's price in terms of its yield rather than in terms of its dollar value. Because bonds are bought and sold on the basis of yield, yield is generally a more informative measure of value than a bond's dollar price is. Treasury securities are usually auctioned on a yield basis.
