Los seguros contra el impago de deuda (CDS) de los bonos gubernamentales ofrecen a los inversores un seguro contra el impago; es decir, contra la posibilidad de que un gobierno no devuelva el dinero que debe. Si un país incumple su promesa, el titular de un CDS recibirá su dinero de todas maneras, y soportarán las pérdidas aquellos que vendieron los CDS. Un inversor puede comprar un CDS (asegurarse a sí mismo contra las pérdidas de los bonos) en varias instituciones financieras, como bancos o instiruciones de gestión alternativa. 3, record 1, Spanish, - seguro%20de%20impago%20de%20deuda
