What is the meaning of scheduled bank in simple words to understand by an ordinary person?

In case of statutory body, is it safe to invest in Schedule bank to earn higher rate of interest on its investment?

Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether investing statutory body funds in scheduled bank fixed deposits, including private banks, is as safe as nationalised banks. While all investments carry some risk, the consensus suggests scheduled banks are generally safe, provided you research the bank's management and track record. The focus is specifically on fixed deposits, not stock market investments.

Risk will be there as long as your money is with others.

Now stock market has crashed . So keep picking quality stocks like Reliance Industries,

I mean at present being a statutory body, its fund is kept in nationalized banks  fixed deposits only, but if committee want to yeild higher rate of  interest on their Fixed Deposits, can they  transfer fund in scheduled bank's fixed deposits without any risk?. I am not talking about investment in stock market. Please guide.

You can do fixed deposits through bids considering highest interest rate

My doubt is whether Investment in fixed deposit of scheduled bank  ( which includes private banks also) is as safe as fixed deposit of nationalized banks ( which includes only government banks)  or not?

 Whether investment in private scheduled bank's fixed deposit is at risk or safe? 

Risk will be there some frauds come out.

Else it is safe .

Check the past track of management..
