Fixed deposits are the best and safest option for senior citizens because they can earn better rates than the general public and have their investments covered by the DICGC up to 5 lakhs. Seniors are choosing fixed deposits as their top choice of fixed-income instrument for their golden years in the setting of rising interest rates, as some banks have started delivering returns that outperform inflation. Depending on their needs during their golden years, seniors can choose from a number of interest pay-out options, including monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, and annual payouts.
