Our fixed income dashboard shows interest rates on fixed-income (also known as debt) investments. It helps investors and borrowers compare corporate bond rates, Treasury rates, bond yields, bank CD rates, corporate spreads, and risk-free interest rates in one place. If you are investing in a corporate bond, Treasury security, bank CD, or another fixed-income investment, you can use this dashboard to compare available rates and better understand current fixed-income market conditions.
It's a dashboard showing interest rates on fixed-income (debt) investments in one place, so investors and borrowers can compare corporate bond rates, Treasury rates, bond yields, bank CD rates, corporate spreads, and risk-free interest rates.
Fixed income investments are debt instruments — such as corporate bonds, Treasury securities, and bank CDs — where the borrower agrees to pay the investor interest over a set period, typically returning the principal at maturity.
Corporate rates reflect the interest a company pays to borrow money and generally include a premium for credit risk. Treasury rates reflect what the U.S. government pays to borrow and are widely used as a risk-free benchmark that corporate rates are measured against.
A credit spread is the difference between a corporate bond's rate and the Treasury rate for a comparable maturity — it reflects the additional yield investors demand for taking on the issuer's credit risk.
Investors can use current rates to evaluate whether a bond, Treasury security, or CD offers a competitive return, while borrowers can use them to gauge the cost of issuing debt or taking out a loan under current market conditions.
