Different types of bonds
There are four major types of bonds discussed in the podcast episode: corporate bonds, municipal bonds, government bonds, and treasuries. Corporate bonds are issued by corporations to fund their business and usually pay higher interest rates. Municipal bonds are issued by state and local governments and are generally federally and state tax-free. Government bonds are used to fund government spending. Treasuries are considered the safest of all bonds as they are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government.
