    1. The document discusses various concepts related to bond valuation and risk, including marketability risk, default risk, yield to maturity, term structure, and duration. 2. It provides a case study involving the calculation of intrinsic value, duration, and modified duration for two bonds with different coupon rates and yields. The bond with lower risk is recommended. 3. A second case study provides data on Bond A, including its face value, coupon rate, years to maturity, redemption value, and yield to maturity. It asks to calculate duration and modified duration, and explains the difference between years to maturity and duration. It also asks how the bond price

    annually whereas CCP safety bond has a coupon rate of 16% payable annually. IGI flexi bond is
    traded at a yield of 8% at present. Calculate the intrinsic value, duration and modified duration of
    both the bonds and suggest the bond with low risk to Sajith.
