Call Feature

Definition: A call feature is a feature in a bond agreement that allows the issuer to buy back bonds at a set price within certain future time frames. This feature may limit the amount of money that a bondholder might otherwise be able to earn by holding a bond, so investors demand a higher effective interest rate when a call feature is present.
