Commercial paper is an unsecured, short-term debt instrument issued by corporations to meet immediate funding needs. These instruments typically have maturities ranging from a few days to 12 months and are issued at a discount to face value. Companies use commercial paper to finance working capital requirements, manage cash flow, or fund short-term obligations. The instruments are usually issued by companies with high credit ratings, as they are not backed by collateral.
