Form of issue characteristic of securities that do not have periodic coupons. These securities commit the issuer to make a single payment on the maturity date (generally for the amount of the nominal value), and therefore its yield is produced by the fact that the investor acquires them at an inferior value to their repayment value. The difference between the acquisition and the nominal value is the discount and denotes the total yield that the investor obtains. Within Spanish government debt, this is the form of issue of Treasury Bills.
