Even Aviva 'Big e' that promised 3.5% (1% above 2.5% CPF ordinary rates) can no longer hold the rate and has sent out mails to all account holders on closure by month end. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

My advice is do not place FD for 12 mths. 3 mths is the best as when you need the cash you can do a premature withdrawal, with less pain. I hv done few premature withdrawal as then I observed that investment in stock have a better return as share market then was booming. Currently, both share market and FD are less attractive leow, but I still belief investing in stock is much viable. BTW, for FD in Maybank and you are senior citizen(55 yrs or above) you will receive another 0.25% int rate, not other bank or finance coy will offer. Not that bad when yrs ago the int rate was 3%. |

one more thing- there is weekly FD. So when market is better, you can withdraw immediately. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Personally, I like RHB FD, Rate is competitive. you can withdraw anytime, no penalty for pre-matured withdrawal and there is no charges for Cashier Order. Something I dont like is there is no internet banking. |

1.98% cannot beat RHB & Fundsupermart for now. Need to take note of the bank charges and restrictions which I think makes is unattractive.

look at Maybank's iSaVvy time deposit rates.. Look attractive compared to most banks.. also, if you apply for internet access, you can also renew upon maturity.. I have placed & renewed since beginning of this year.. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I have that account but the cash fund interest rate has been steadily going downwards and currently its 1.968%. The account is good for below 50K. StanChart 2.00% recommended by floppy is good for 50K up. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I thought some SJ member might not know of this service under Finance, where you can find Fixed Deposit information easily. Here is the annoucement from Admin for your reference and use.
