Bond
It’s a financial product disciplined by the Issuer’s local legislation. The Subscriber of a Bond finances the issuing company, which issues Bonds to collect liquidity destined to the achievement of a specific goal. The Bond’s Subscribers have the right to be reimbursed at Expiry (or earlier should specific conditions occur) and receive a variable Interest linked to the players’ and the club’s performance.
