Fix deposits (FD) have been a much more popular investment option in India. But due to the fall in interest rates on bank FDs for some time, people are looking for an alternative, so that they can get better returns. Such investors can start investing in Corporate Fix Deposits (Corporate FD) with AAA rating. Corporate FD is popular among those who want a higher fixed return than bank FD. However, corporate FDs carry little risk.
Corporate deposits are issued by a company rather than a bank. Here the interest rate is higher than that of bank FD. The risk in corporate FDs is higher than that of bank FDs, as they are related to the business of companies. However, higher-rated corporate FDs carry less risk and protect the investor’s capital. Let us know about the interest rates on various corporate FDs.
