Public introduces fractional bond investing to all its members.

Public has already started offering real-time trading of fractional stocks and ETFs. Now, the platform is doing the same for bonds.
All bonds in Public receive a liquidity score from 1–5, based on the historical liquidity of the bond. A score of 5 means the bond had very active markets. All fractional bonds on Public have a liquidity score of 5, making them among the most liquid bonds on the platform.
Now, traders can narrow down thousands of bonds to those that match their personal investment criteria with smart filters, or customize their search from scratch. You can also start a conversation with Alpha within the screen.
Unlike other platforms, traders will find key financial data on every corporate bond page, from cash flow to debt metrics, so they can assess the health of businesses in the same place they invest.
There are currently more than 100 fractional bonds on Public, and the company says it will continue to add more. Traders can filter by fractional bonds in Public’s checker or look for the Fractional tag on the bond pages.
