Talk:Foreign bonds

Will there be enough content for a dedicated article, or should this content be just section(s) within the Bonds page? --Peculiar Investor 18:17, 17 December 2014 (MST)


 * Unless there is more content, I think it should be inserted as new sections within the Bond page. --LadyGeek 18:51, 17 December 2014 (MST)


 * I intend to write a lot more, please give me a few days :-) Then we can decide to leave it as a stand-alone page or not. Bogleheads wiki has good pages on both foreing developed, and EM bonds, demonstrating that there is interest on this topic, there at least. --Quebec 16:18, 18 December 2014 (MST)
 * OK, carry on. Another, more common, approach is start the article in your User namespace, i.e. User:Quebec, and tag article with Possible article. An example is User:Peculiar Investor/Young investors. Continue working there until you think the article has been developed enough to move into the Main namespace. The Possible article template has an option to specify whether you want to allow others to contribute edits. --Peculiar Investor 17:08, 18 December 2014 (MST)

I'm done for now. What's the verdict? --Quebec 07:39, 19 December 2014 (MST)
 * I see that the sidebar has been added to the article. Should we also add foreign bonds to the sidebar? --Quebec 11:02, 19 December 2014 (MST)

Yes, every entry should be included. As done in Wikipedia, sidebars (and the navigation menus at the article bottoms) are the main method of navigating finiki. I made the entry and used the opportunity to do some formatting. Feel free to update as you wish. --LadyGeek 12:09, 19 December 2014 (MST)

Article title question
Is the title of this article correct because The context of this article is about investing in bonds outside of the Canadian market, not about issuers outside of Canada with issues in Canadian dollars. Unfortunately I'm unable to suggest a better article title as an alternative. --Peculiar Investor 05:25, 5 January 2015 (MST)
 * Foreign Bond Definition | Investopedia states "A bond that is issued in a domestic market by a foreign entity, in the domestic market's currency." (my bold) and
 * Foreign Bond Definition from Financial Times Lexicon "A bond issued by a foreign borrower in the currency of the country in which it is sold. Examples include Yankee bonds (US dollar denominated bond issued by a foreign borrower in the US), Samurai bonds (issued in Japan and denominated in yen) and Bulldog bonds (issued in the UK in sterling)."
