non-callable bond

non-callable bond definition - finance
A bond that canÂ’t be called, or repaid, by the issuer before its maturity. The U.S. Treasury is the most common issuer of non-callable bonds. Corporate bonds usually have some type of call option, except during periods of low interest rates when there is little incentive for a company to issue new bonds with call protection. See also callable bond.
