# Accessing Bond Yields

Find bond yields across sovereign curves, individual corporate and municipal securities, and index level.

Bond yields sit in three places, depending on whether you want a whole sovereign curve, one specific security, or a market-wide index.

| You want                                                  | Go to                                                                           | Level               |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------- |
| A sovereign yield curve for a country                     | [Government Bonds](/documentation/market-data-guides/bonds/government-bonds.md) | Curve               |
| The yield on a corporate, municipal or individual bond    | [Bond Comps](/documentation/market-data-guides/bonds/bond-comps.md)             | Individual security |
| Where a sector, rating band or maturity bucket is trading | [iBoxx Spreads](/documentation/market-data-guides/bonds/iboxx-spreads.md)       | Index               |

All three sit under **Bonds** in the left-hand navigation and export through **Download**.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Know the ISIN already?** Use the **search bar at the top right** from anywhere in the app and paste it in. Results are grouped by type, so an ISIN such as `XS2583205906` returns under **Corporate Bonds** with the issuer, coupon and maturity, and takes you straight to that bond. This works across the whole bond universe, not just sovereigns.

## Sovereign Bond Yields

### 2. Open Government Bonds

Click **Bonds** and then [**Government Bonds**](https://app.bluegamma.io/bonds/gov/united-kingdom) in the left-hand sidebar.

### 3. Select a Country

Use the **country drop-down** to choose the market you want. Coverage runs to 35 sovereign markets, from US Treasuries and UK Gilts through to Brazil, Nigeria and Indonesia. The full list is on [Government Bonds](/documentation/market-data-guides/bonds/government-bonds.md).

### 4. Read the Yields

Every market shows the same core view, top to bottom:

* **Bond Yields**, a table of yields by tenor
* **End-of-Day Government Bond Yields**, a history chart with selectable periods from 1M to Max
* **Zero-coupon yield curve**, with a **Zero-coupon yields** table underneath

### 5. Analyse the Curve

How much further you can go depends on the market. Deeper markets carry more:

| Feature                                                                     | Where it appears                                  |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| **Swap Spreads** and **Forward Curve** tabs                                 | Larger markets, including US and UK               |
| **Forward Start Bond** interpolation, by forward start and tenor            | Larger markets, including US and UK               |
| **Inflation Linked** tab                                                    | Markets with a linker programme, including the UK |
| A table of the individual bonds, with ISIN, maturity, clean price and yield | UK Gilts                                          |

Smaller markets show the core view only. If a market you need is missing something, email <support@bluegamma.io> and we will tell you whether it is on the roadmap.

## Corporate and Other Bond Yields

### 6. Open Bond Comps

Click **Bonds** and then [**Bond Comps**](https://app.bluegamma.io/bonds/bond-comps). This is the screener for individual securities rather than sovereign curves.

### 7. Find the Bond

* **Search by ISIN, bond or issuer name** in the search box.
* Or narrow the universe with the **Issuer Type** filter: **Corporate**, **Municipal** or **Sovereign**.

### 8. Read the Yield

Each row carries **Yield (YTM)** alongside **Price**, **Spread (bp)**, **Remaining Tenor**, **Rating**, **Sector** and **Amount Outstanding**, so a bond can be read on its own or against its comparables. Every column sorts.

Use **Change time** to price the table as at a past date, and **Download** to export what you see.

{% hint style="info" %}
If a bond you need is not in the universe, click **Request a bond** on Bond Comps and submit the ISIN with an optional note. The request reaches our support team directly.
{% endhint %}

***

## Index-Level Yields

### 9. Open iBoxx Spreads

Click **Bonds** and then [**iBoxx Spreads**](https://app.bluegamma.io/bonds/iboxx) when you want the yield on a basket rather than a single bond.

The **Current Spreads** table carries **Yield (%)** against every index, alongside **OAS** and **Z-Spread**. Use it to see where a sector, rating band or maturity bucket is trading, and the **Historical Spreads** panel to chart how that has moved.
