The foreign bond market of a country is where bonds of issuers not domiciled in the country are issued and traded. For example, in the United States the foreign bond market is the market where bonds are issued by non-U.S. entities and then subsequently traded. Bonds traded in the U.S. foreign bond market are nicknamed Yankee bonds. In Japan, a yen-denominated bond issued by a British corporation and subsequently traded in Japan's bond market is part of the Japanese foreign bond market. Yen-denominated bonds issued by non-Japanese entities are nicknamed Samurai bonds. Foreign bonds in the United Kingdom are referred to as bulldog bonds, in the Netherlands as Rembrandt bonds, and in Spain as matador bonds.
