What are fixed-income investments?

Important information:

Certificates of deposit (CDs) are federally insured up to $250,000 (principal and interest accrued but not yet paid) per issuing institution. Please visit fdic.gov or contact your financial advisor for additional information. CD values are subject to interest rate risk such that when interest rates rise, the prices of CDs can decrease. If CDs are sold prior to maturity, the investor can lose principal value. FDIC insurance does not cover losses in market value. Please see the Certificate of Deposit Disclosure Statement (PDF) for additional information.
