Step 1: Introduction to bonds:

Bonds are debt securities issued by governments, municipalities, corporations, or other entities to raise capital. When you purchase a bond, you are essentially lending money to the issuer in exchange for periodic interest payments (referred to as coupon payments) and the return of the bond's face value (also known as the principal or par value) at a specified future date, known as the bond's maturity date.
