There’s been abundant discussion from investment pundits in the media the past 4-6 months about the attractive investment potential of corporate bonds due to the historically high basis point spread between corporate, government bonds and historical equity returns.
I’ve received a few questions from readers recently about bonds, specifically:
- How to value a bond?
- Where to find information about them?
- What affects the pricing of a bond?
- What are the risks?
- How do you buy bonds?
- How do you assess a bond?
If you have additional questions to add please feel free to comment or contact me. I will add feedback to the list of possible content to be addressed and try my best to incorporate every question into the resources and assessment criteria I provide in the post.

Looking forward to this article. I recently bought PH & N High yield bond fund because I see us living in a deflationary environment for the next year. I always appreciate your extensive research and sound mind in investing.

Is there anywhere in Canada where an investor see say Corporate Bond Offerings, whatever the yield and maturity. I understand that is a no no!
Each discount broker (big 5 bank) has a different fixed income section that will include roughly the same information. One tool that I do know certain investors use is GlobeinvestorGold. There is a monthly subscription charge, but this is something I might address in a future post to give readers better insight into where to find prices and determine pricing.
