Key Terms

fixed-to-floating rate financial
A fixed-to-floating rate is a type of loan or investment that starts with a fixed interest rate for a certain period, meaning the payments stay the same, then switches to a variable rate that can change over time based on market conditions. This matters because it offers the stability of fixed payments initially, but also the flexibility to benefit if interest rates drop later.
subordinated debentures financial
A subordinated debenture is a type of long-term loan a company issues that ranks below other debts when paying creditors, so holders are paid only after higher-priority lenders if the company defaults. It matters to investors because this lower repayment priority raises the risk of loss, which companies typically offset by offering higher interest, making it a trade-off between yield and safety—like standing later in line for a bigger tip.
cusip financial
A CUSIP is a nine-character alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies a U.S. or Canadian financial security—such as a stock, bond, or fund share—like a Social Security number for an investment. It matters to investors because brokers, exchanges and record-keepers use the CUSIP to match trades, track ownership, settle transactions and pull accurate records, reducing errors and ensuring money and securities go to the right place.

isin financial
A 12-character International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) is a unique code that acts like a passport for a specific stock, bond or other tradable security so it can be identified worldwide. Investors and systems use it to ensure they are buying, selling and tracking the exact same instrument across exchanges and data feeds, which prevents costly mix-ups and makes portfolio reporting, settlement and regulatory checks simpler and more reliable.
View in glossary
indenture financial
An indenture is a legal agreement between a company that borrows money by issuing bonds and the people who buy those bonds. It explains the rules the company must follow, like paying back the money and keeping certain financial promises. This document helps both sides understand their rights and responsibilities.
redemption price financial
The redemption price is the amount of money a person receives when they sell or redeem a bond or investment before it matures. It’s important because it determines how much you get back and can affect your overall profit or loss on the investment. Think of it like the price you get when returning a gift card early—it's the value you receive at that time.
trustee financial
A trustee is a person or institution legally appointed to hold and manage assets or enforce an agreement on behalf of other people (beneficiaries). Think of a trustee as a neutral referee or custodian who must act in the beneficiaries’ best interests, follow the trust or contract rules, and handle distributions, recordkeeping and enforcement. Investors care because a trustworthy trustee protects their rights, ensures promised payments or remedies are delivered, and can influence recoveries if things go wrong.
