Corporate bonds are different from that of preference and common stock. Bonds are fixed income securities, which are entitled to fixed interest as agreed by issuer and holder. In context of Nepal, the history of security market is not so long. Among few of the securities, common stock seems very popular. Nepalese security market is largely dominated by common stock. For fixed income securities like bonds and debentures there is very little priority, or we can say close to nil. Bond as a long-term investment alternative is quite popular all over the world. However, Nepalese investors never saw bond as priority for their investment alternative. There might be several factors behind Nepalese investors not being attracted toward corporate bonds. This study aims to examine factors that influence institutional investor to invest in bond market and other securities. 7 Progress report : A brief note reflecting 7.1 Number of meeting with Guides
