Yield to call

Explanation:

Yield to call (YTC) is a financial term that represents the return that one would receive if they held a note or bond until its call date before the debt instrument reaches maturity. In other words, it's the earnings you would receive if you held a bond until it was called before it matured

Yield to call is the return on investment for a fixed income holder if the underlying security i. e. Callable Bond is held until the pre-determined call date and not the maturity date

The yield to call (YTC) is a calculation of the total return of a bond based off of the purchase price, the par value, and how much will be received in coupon payments until the call date. Where: YTC = yield to call. C = annual coupon.
