My personal take is, in order for an instrument to give returns, it must be exposed to risks to get a yield. If there is no yield, then there is no risks. Hence, personally there is no such thing as risk-free investments.

There is a variant of endowment plans called Traded Endowment Plans (TEPs), which are endowment plans which were pre-owned, bought-over and then re-sold by brokers, for shorter term to maturity and projected higher returns as compared to newly incepted ones. TEPs are also low-risk instrument and not risk-free.
