Risks of Investing In Bank Bonds

  • Taxable
    Bank bonds don't come with any tax benefit. TDS is deducted by the bank on any interest earned by an investor.

  • Banking institutions are exposed to interest rate risk as the rate at which the loans are given is fixed, whereas the rate at which it has raised money from depositors/investors is variable.

The interest rates on bank bonds are influenced by various factors like prevailing market rates, the creditworthiness of the bank issuing the bond, and the bond term. Usually, banks offer higher interest rates on bonds with longer maturities or those perceived to have higher credit risk.
