Bank fixed deposits (FDs) are fixed-income instruments with a guaranteed rate of return on investments. They are popular among investors mainly because of the fixed rate of return that they offer, unlike say, stocks or bonds, the returns on which fluctuate according to market volatility. Top lenders like State Bank of India (SBI), HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank and UCO Bank offer the option of creating a fixed deposit account. Interest rates on fixed deposits vary according to separate maturity baskets across different banks.
