How can you avoid negative interest rates?

The threshold for negative interest rates is being further lowered across the world. However, there are alternatives to paying negative interest on your money. Investing always comes with a risk, but through dividend stocks and bonds, you can potentially get a positive return with a risk suitable to your risk profile.

Bonds

One way to avoid negative interest rates is through investing in bonds. Bonds are usually reserved for institutional clients and professional investors, but at Saxo Bank we give you the opportunity to trade directly in the bond market through our low-cost investment platform. We have selected 7 bonds below that have relatively short maturities, good ratings and positive effective interest rates.

Stocks

Another way to avoid negative interest rates is to invest in stocks. Individual stocks are usually considered a riskier investment compared to bonds. However, you can invest in stocks that pay high expected dividends. This means that you can achieve a positive return on your money, although with a risk that is significantly higher than for bond investments.

Saxo Bank's analysts have selected 6 interesting dividend stocks that are worth a closer look.
