As junk bonds are such high-risk instruments, the returns on such bonds aren't very high.?

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


False

Junk bonds are high-risk, high-yield bonds often issued to finance a management buyout (MBO), a merger, or a troubled company. In junk bond deals, firms generally have significant amounts of debt so bondholders must bear as much risk as stockholders normally would. The high yields on these bonds reflect this fact.
