Talk:Floating-rate bond

For a June 2005 deletion debate over this page see Votes for deletion/Floating-rate bond

I've put it up for deletion again. The June 05 discussion was interesting, but... There is no such concept as a 'Floating-rate bond' in the bond markets. Yes, there are bonds that have floating rate coupons, but these are universally known as Floating Rate Notes (I know, just one of those quirks of a living market). As you'll see there's quite a substantial entry there. My suggestion would be to just have this entry redirect to the FRN entry. Not signed edit from DocendoDiscimus on 20:23, 9 September 2005


 * As John C. Hull speaks about a "floating-rate bond" in Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives (fifth edition) P. 126 and the article Floating rate note says: "Floating rate notes (FRNs) are bonds [...]", it seems to me reasonable to redirect from "floating rate notes" to "floating-rate bond" - instead of the other way round, like up to now.
