Generate stable returns with Fixed Income investments


Investing in fixed income is a good option for those looking for regular income and stable long-term returns. Bonds are considered low-risk because investors hold the status of a “creditor,” meaning they have a higher priority to receive repayment than common shareholders. This helps reduce risk and lower the overall volatility of an investment portfolio.

In addition, bonds can be traded on the secondary market, allowing investors to potentially earn extra profit from price changes. There is also a wide variety of choices, including both government and corporate bonds, across different risk levels to suit each investor’s preference.

Fixed Income is a financial tool issued by an entity — such as a government or a private company — to raise funds from investors. Investors receive interest as a return over a specified period, and the full principal is repaid when the instrument reaches maturity. In this case, the investor is the creditor, and the issuer is the borrower.

There are two main types of fixed income:

  • Government bond such as government bonds and treasury bills
  • Corporate bond such as debentures issued by companies

These instruments can be bought and sold in both the primary market and secondary market, helping improve liquidity and providing more chances to profit from price changes.

Risks to be aware of when investing in fixed income:

  • Liquidity risk – You may not be able to sell the instrument at your desired time.
  • Interest rate risk – The price of the instrument may go up or down depending on market interest rate trends.
  • Default risk – The issuer may fail to pay interest or repay the principal.
  • Inflation risk – If inflation rises, your real return may decrease.
  • Reinvestment risk – When you receive your principal back, you may not find a new instrument with a similar return.
