Over 2200 Glossary Terms

Debenture

A debenture is an unsecured debt security, such as a Treasury bond or Treasury bill. Governments and highly-rated corporations can issue debentures to raise capital. Because there's no collateral supporting the debenture, investors must feel confident in the creditworthiness of the issuer.
