Governments sell bonds to borrow money from investors, essentially taking loans to fund public spending like infrastructure, social programs, and to cover budget deficits, acting as a low-risk way for citizens or institutions to lend to the government in exchange for regular interest and principal repayment, thus financing national needs without immediately raising taxes.
These bonds are considered low-risk investments since they are backed by the government and are considered safe because of their relatively low risk. Government bonds typically pay low interest rates.
