What Are Treasury Bond Rates?

The Treasury bond interest rate is the interest rate that Treasury issuers pay to Treasury investors each year. In the case of face value issuance, the interest rate of the national debt is the ratio of the interest rate of the national debt to the face value of the national debt; in the case of a discount issue, the interest rate of the national debt is the ratio of the difference between the issue price of the national debt and its face value to the issue price. The interest rate of the national debt directly affects the issue cost of the national debt; the determination of the national debt interest rate is mainly affected by factors such as the duration of the current national debt, the level of market interest rates, and the method of interest payment. Due to the characteristics of high credit rating and high security, in general, among various interest rates, the interest rate of the national debt is the lowest, which has the function of the benchmark interest rate. However, in China, due to the constraints of the banking system, the risk of deposits is low, and the liquidity of treasury bonds is poor. The interest rate is often 1 to 2 percentage points higher than the interest rate of bank deposits during the same period. [1]
