Short term. When you receive a dividend you want to re-invest, do you run out and buy shares immediately or leave the funds in a current/savings account until you find something to buy?
Loans take time to make. Perhaps the Bond was to invest in a new housing project to be paid for over time or in stages.
@Instinct is right coz it takes ages to issue a bond in Kenya.
