Fixed income securities

Investments that have specific interest rates, such as bonds.

Fixed income securities

Securities which pay a fixed rate of interest. Government bonds (gilts) are the best known example. Compared to shares, fixed income securities have the attraction of certainty - you know what income you will get in advance - and they are less risky than shares. But the upside is not as good, and you will never get the really high returns with a bond that you might get with a share that does well.
