Definition: Government bond is a debt security issued by the Central government with a residual maturity of 10 years.
This bond is backed by sovereign guarantee. The 10-year bond has the highest liquidity amongst similar maturity bonds. Once fixed, the coupon rate remains constant throughout the term of the bond. Only the yield changes commensurate with the interest rates and accordingly the price of the bond changes. There exists an inverse relationship between the bond yield and its price.
