What is a secured bond?
A bond that is backed by specific assets is called a secured bond. The most common form of secured bonds are mortgage bonds; they are considered high-grade, safe investments because they are backed by real estate or physical equipment that can be sold if the issuer defaults. However, bonds are also secured using the revenues created by projects.
