April 13 (Reuters) - Federal Reserve chair nominee Kevin Warsh has submitted required paperwork to the Senate, putting him one step closer to a Senate hearing, CNBC reported on Monday, citing two sources familiar with the matter.

A prior plan to hold that hearing this week had to be delayed after a holdup with the paperwork, the report added.

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.
