Debt Product Overview Debt Product Overview By Shawn Hill Is the inevitable finally happening? Can all those talking heads on the financial media outlets finally be right? Are interest rates starting to bounce from historic lows and begin their long-awaited climb upwards? The BSC Group doesn’t have the answer, but what we do know is that treasury yields are up significantly over the past six months. On January 26, 2015, the Ten-Year Treasury closed at 1.68%. Today, on June 10, 2015, it sits at 2.41%; a climb of 73 basis points or 0.73%.
