Bus/Financial / Government stock
English term or phrase: coupon
Any experts on government stock out there? Am still struggling with the glossary of my book. The expression "coupon" with regard to gilt-edged securities (gilts) refers to the interest paid, but what is the expression in German? "Zinsen", "Dividende" or something else?
TIA! :-)

This is the part of a fixed-income security (bond) that vests the holder's right to payment of interest.

Note that the term works for any type of bond, not just for government-issued securities.
