Duration is a commonly used measure of the potential volatility of the price of a debt security, or the aggregate market value of a portfolio of debt securities, prior to maturity. Securities with a longer duration generally have more volatile prices than securities of comparable quality with a shorter duration.

Bond ratings assigned by Moody’s range from the highest rating of Aaa (bonds of the highest quality that offer the lowest degree of investment risk and the issuers are considered to be extremely stable and dependable) to C (lowest rated class of bonds). In limited situations when the rating agency has not issued a formal rating, the rating agency will classify the security as not rated.
