and private sectors.

for investors to arrange to purchase and sell various types
of debt securities that are in the form of bonds.

 A debt security refers to money borrowed that must be repaid


that has a fixed amount, a maturity date(s), and usually a specifi
c rate of interest.
Introduction;
 In the last two decades, China’s economy has grown at a rate of about
10% per year and its bond market has grown from virtually nonexistent
into one of the world’s largest.

 In 2015 China bond market totaled the outstanding national amount of


domestic bond market which rose by 35% about 48 trillion RMB. Which

Reasons for the growth of Bonds
Market in China.
 Governments need to borrow money. They borrow money through selling
bonds to the private sector. Usually, investors are quite happy to buy
government bonds. They are seen as a safe investment and the investor gets
a guaranteed rate of interest in return.
 One of the key reasons that Chinese Bond Market tend to be developing
very fast because Chinese corporations mainly rely primarily on equity
issuance and bank loans for financing trade. Because of this Chinese
government has strong incentive to develop the bond market and encourage
corporations to raise funds to curtail credit risk in banking system.
 Infrastructure development is another important reason for the growth of
China’s bond market. Although fiscal revenues have grown up rapidly, China
still needs additional financing to fund infrastructure construction.
 In addition China’s bond market is growing from a very small base, despite
many years of rapid growth in china’s bond market, the country’s
government debt-to-GDP ratio is still relatively low.

Who are the main players in bond?
The bond market involves transactions among three key players:

 Issuers: these includes entities that sell bonds to raise funds for
funding their operations. E.g. banks both local and multinational
banks and government as issuing entity.

 Underwriters: There are the middlemen/women in preparing the


legal documents for easy simplifications of the bonds. These group
include investment banks and institutions that are the leaders in the
investing business. They help the issuer by selling bonds.

 Purchasers: this group includes the individual investors who buy


bonds are and they are the main buyers of debt instruments.
Importance of bonds

 Apart from the direct effect of the bond


market on the economy, bonds also help
keep the tax rates low since the
government now has this other route to
raise money for its various needs and to
help it finance public debt.
