The maturity date of long bonds is typically several years in the future. But there is some flexibility in the maturity dates that corporations can issue on their bonds. Loan terms for corporate bonds can range from 15 to 25 years. The term “long bond” is commonly used to describe the issuer’s longest maturity option.

Benefits Of Long-Term Bonds?

Investors can reap many benefits from this investment vehicle. Some of the benefits of long-term bonds include the following:

PROVIDE INCOME

Long-term bonds give the highest and most reliable income among assets. Even when rates are low, you can still develop an income-producing portfolio. High-yield bonds or developing market debt are examples.

DIVERSIFICATION

"Don't put all your eggs in one basket." True of investors. It's a cliché, but it's true. More diversification can deliver superior risk-adjusted returns than narrow portfolios over time. It reduces the risk-adjusted return.

PRESERVE PRINCIPAL

Fixed income investments are good for folks who need the money soon. This could apply to someone nearing retirement or a parent whose child is starting college.

TAX ADVANTAGE

Some long-term bonds can help lower tax obligations. Bank instruments, most money market funds, and equities are taxable unless held in a tax-deferred account, but municipal bonds are not.

Who issues Long-Term Bonds?

Long-term bonds are a loan to the issuer. Governments (at all levels) and enterprises issue long-term bonds to gather money. Highways, schools, and dams need government funds.

Companies use debt to fund expansion, new purchases or investments, profitable enterprises, R&D, and staffing needs. Large firms need more money than a conventional bank can give them. Long-term bonds can be bought and sold on markets long after the initial issuer has collected the money they were issued for.

How Do Long-Term Bonds Work?

A long-term bond is a promise to repay principal and interest by a specific date. Until then, the bondholder will receive interest payments from the borrower. Bondholders are sometimes called creditors. Interest payments on paper bonds were redeemed by clipping coupons. Used to be done manually, now it’s online.
The long-term bond is due when it matures (the “face value”). Most bondholders sell before maturity. Secondary bond markets do so. Bonds are sold between a broker and a creditor. Since bonds can be resold, their value fluctuates.
