The bond market refers to people and entities involved in buying and selling of bonds and the quantity and prices of those transactions over time. Participants in the market trade bonds issued by corporations and various government bodies.

Because of the relationship between bond prices and interest rates, references to the "bond market" are often used to indicate changes in interest rates or the shape of the yield curve. Other names for the bond market are the credit market and the debt market.
