Answer to Question 1

Liquidity problems exist in thinly traded bonds, default risk is the likelihood the corporation will default on its bond obligations, and the maturity risk reflects the fact that longer-term bonds possess greater interest rate risk and sensitivity than shorter term bonds. If any of these exists, investors will demand compensation for the risk by demanding a yield premium to own the bonds.
