BOCA RATON, Fla., Aug 05, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Bonds.com Group, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCBB: BDCG), through its subsidiary Bonds.com, Inc., provider of an innovative comprehensive online trading platform providing execution, liquidity and competitive pricing to the fragmented fixed income marketplace, announced today that it was recently the subject of a feature article on StructuredRetailProducts.com, the leading online resource for the structured products market. The article highlights the Company's recent major announcement that it will shortly be adding structured products to its offering. As excerpted from the article:
"We have had a tremendous amount of reverse inquiries," Bonds.com CEO John Barry told SRP. "We realized that eventually we wanted to roll into this product segment." Until now, Bonds.com offered only plain vanilla fixed-income securities (specifically corporate agency securities, corporate retail notes, municipal bonds and fixed-rate certificates of deposits).
"Adding structured retail products (including commodity-, currency-, equity- and interest rate-linked securities) allows Bonds.com to help clients diversify their portfolios beyond fixed-income products and gives the firm a whole new revenue stream and business to grow," Barry said. "Bonds.com can offer the one-stop-shopping everyone is looking for."
