Dec 11 (Reuters) - The U.S. Federal Reserve's Board of Governors on Thursday said the system's regional bank presidents had been reappointed to their positions with unanimous agreement of the seven board members.

Their new five-year terms will begin on March 1, the Fed said in a statement. The reappointments included each bank's first vice president. (Reporting by Dan Burns; Editing by Paul Simao)

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
