Fixed income refers to investments that provide a regular return stream, typically through interest or dividend payments. These financial products, such as bonds, certificates of deposit, and preferred stocks, generally offer predictable cash flows over a defined period. Investors often use fixed income for capital preservation and portfolio stability. Their value is sensitive to interest rate changes and credit risk.
Context
The integration of fixed income concepts into decentralized finance DeFi is a developing area, with protocols exploring tokenized bonds and yield-bearing stablecoin products. Traditional financial news often compares the risk-adjusted returns of crypto-native fixed income options with conventional offerings. This convergence presents both opportunities for yield and novel risk considerations for participants.
