Are there risks when investing in bonds?

Bonds typically have a predictable stream of revenue and repay principal at maturity. Many people invest in bonds to preserve and increase their capital or to receive dependable interest income. However, bonds are subject to changes in interest rates, risk of defaults by the issuer, and the loss of purchasing power due to inflation. When investing in bonds, it is important to remember that an investment's return is linked to its risk. Riskier investments generally offer the potential for higher returns.

Fixed Income Securities are subject to the following risks:

• Credit Risk - financial risk that the issuer will not be able to repay the principal upon maturity as promised
• Call Risk - bonds may be called before the maturity date if interest rates decrease. The issuer of the bonds will call the securities if it is cheaper for them than to pay the outstanding 'above market' interest rate.
• Market Risk - if the bond must be sold before maturity date, the bond may be worth more or less than the face value depending on interest rate movements
• Inflation Risk - recognizes the value of assets or of income will be eroded as inflation shrinks the value of a country's currency
• Liquidity Risk - some securities are less liquid if there are fewer market makers.
