fixed interest

Unchanging loan payments

Fixed interest describes loans or investments that pay the same rate throughout their term, as opposed to variable or floating rates that change with market conditions.

A fixed interest mortgage keeps the same monthly payment regardless of what happens to interest rates elsewhere.

Bonds typically pay fixed interest, making them predictable income sources.
