Discounted Notes

Discounted Notes are short-term debt instruments issued and sold below their face value. Investors earn returns by holding the note to maturity, at which point it is redeemed at full face value. The difference between the purchase price and the face value represents the investor’s return. There are no periodic interest payments, returns are realised once, at maturity.
