Commercial Paper
How big companies finance short-term cash flow.
Like bonds but without the coupon, instead, the APR is determined by the discount the agreements are entered into and the length of time to repayment.
For example, a blue chip company might borrow $9.95m dollars today and repay $10m in a month’s time.
Annuity
A guaranteed income for the rest of someones life.
Historically purchased with pension lump sums.
The buyer is swaping cash now for future income.
