In the current environment of bank's low-interest rates on fixed deposits compared to Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) or corporate deposits, fixed depositors are searching for the best or greatest available returns on their accounts. As mentioned NBFCs offer fixed deposit accounts similar to banks, where you can put your money for a set length of time and earn a set interest rate. These NBFCs offer better interest rates on term Deposits compared to the Banks. However, Corporate fixed deposits, unlike bank deposits, are not protected by the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation. Instead, they are assessed by multiple rating agencies depending on the company's credit quality, which ensures deposit safety. It is recommended that investors invest in "AAA" rated corporate fixed deposits, which reduce but do not eliminate your deposit risk.
