Interest type |
Description |
Fixed-rate interest
|
Interest rates set at issuance of the financial asset that do not change over time
|
Variable-rate interest
|
Interest rates that change over time, most often based on a published interest rate index, such as the London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR), Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) or a prime rate
|
Zero coupon
|
A zero-coupon bond is purchased for an amount lower than its face value, with the face value repaid at maturity.
There is no stated interest rate and the issuer does not make periodic interest payments. When the bond reaches maturity, its investor receives the face (or par) value. Although there are no regularly scheduled interest payments, interest is earned over time as the difference between the bond’s purchase price and its par value.
|
Paid-in-kind (PIK)
|
Interest on a financial asset paid by the issuance of a new bond as compensation for interest due, which in turn has its own stated terms, including interest, principal, and maturity.
