A collateral bond is backed by an asset, usually common stock, that adds security and reduces the risk of the bond to the bondholder. If the bond has collateral, the risk of the bond is less so the coupon rate will likely be lower because the bondholder is receiving extra for the added security. If the bond doesn’t have collateral, the risk is greater for the bondholder, so S&S will pay a higher coupon rate to make up for the higher risk. Adding collateral to a bond makes the bond more attractive

After about seven or eight years, an x-ray showed a bone chip floating around in the elbow joint, and surgery was needed
