Bond Anticipation Note - BAN

What does it mean?
A short-term interest-bearing security issued in the anticipation of larger future bond issues.

In Other Words...
Bond anticipation notes are smaller short-term bonds issued by governments and corporations. Knowing that the proceeds of the larger future issue will cover the anticipation notes, the issuing bodies use the notes as short-term financing.
