Bond Issuer

The coupon rate is the fixed interest rate that bond issuers pay to bondholders on a regular basis. This rate is determined by various factors, such as the issuer's credit rating, market conditions, and the length of the bond.

These investors then receive regular interest payments from the issuer, known as the coupon rate.
