AAA-rated corporate FDs may be a good bet before rates fall

Investors looking for an alternative to bank deposits, especially after the rate cuts announced earlier this month, could end up locking their money into AAA-rated corporate fixed deposits, and their top choices could be companies such as Bajaj FinanceNSE 1.93 %, PNB Housing Finance and Shriram Transport Finance, which are yet to reduce their deposit rates, said distributors.

“Investors should first lock into those companies that enjoy a high rating and are yet to reduce rates. They should diversify their fixed deposit portfolio across a basket of AAA-rated companies,” said Anup Bhaiya, CEO, Money Honey Financial Services.
