Bond Swaps
Posted By: TradersLog
A bond swap occurs when an investor sells one bond and uses the proceeds to purchase another bond, often at the same price. Investors engage in bond swaps for a variety of reasons. For example, investors may want to take a tax loss by selling one bond at a loss but then preserve their investment by simultaneously buying a similar bond. At other times, investors swap bonds to obtain a higher yield and return on their bond investments.
