Debt Relief

Bonds have a fixed lifetime, commonly a figure of years; with long-term bonds, lasting over 30 years, being less common. At the edge of the bond's life the money should be repaid in full. Affection may be added to the end payment, or can be paid in regular installments (known as coupons) during the life of the bond. Debt Relief Bonds may be traded in the bond markets, and are widely used as relatively safe investments in identification to equity.

Debt will increase through time if it is not repaid faster than it grows through interest. This causatum may be termed usury, while the designation "usury" in other contexts refers only to an excessive rate of interest, in excess of a reasonable profit for the risk accepted.
