 * I have been unable to find a credible reference regarding the mitigation of call risk from a corporate bond portfolio. The following may be true:
 * Short term corporate bonds are much less likely to have call provisions than longer maturities, so a short term corporate bond fund may avoid, or at least greatly reduce, this risk.
 * Vanguard claims in their prospectus on the new index bond funds that the indexes hold very few callable bonds and that call risk is very low for all three corporate bond indexes. --Blbarnitz 18:03, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
