dbedford I thought a foreign bond was a foreign country issuing a bond in the domestic country's currency.

So how is B correct when the people don't want the domestic country's currency?

A Eurobond is issued domestically in a foreign country's currency so the answer should be C
khalifa92 its domestic when its issued in the same currency by a company in the same country.
but its foreign if issued to a different country in their currency.
and if its outside the country of issue in the country of issue's currency; eurobond.
