For the ones at CIMB SG, which account you use:
Star Saver or Fast Saver?

Above 50k Fast Saver is more attractive.

No minimum balance, but also no interest for days with less than SGD 1000 in the account.

I believe that many of us here have CIMB Singapore FastSaver Account.

Since the savings interest is reduced from 1% to 0.5% for the first S$50,000 a few months ago, are you still keeping your liquid money in this savings account, or in other banking product from other bank or financial institution?

Thank you for your information. smile.gif

Yes, still keeping 100k SGD in the Fastsaver. Interest rate is 0.825, monthly interest is roughly SGD 70 per month. As I am not keeping my SGD for interest reasons that is OK for me in these times. No FD promo around, so what else to do?

Why didn't you try out the product? I thought it already existed a long time ago, and given your past history in the forum, you should have tried out earlier, no? Is there anything wrong with the product that makes you wary of trying out?

The thing is the same with all that money market products. Certainly it the past it was so easy for them to earn 1.4% p.a. (nett) and more. But can they do it in Q4 of 2020? That would be the interesting questions. So if anyone invests in this products, don“t tell how they performed in 2019, tell about 1st July up to today.

By the way, for example, if they managed to perform 2.8 in Q1 and Q2 and 1.4 in Q3 and 0.0 in Q4 that means nice 1.75 p.a.

But if you joined now it means zero profit for you. I see that this product is calculated differently, but basically it is in that way.

If you don't have it because you don't qualify to declare taxes to LHDN,, fine.

Cause only US uses TIN. And this crappy put TIN thing came from US and then everyone thinks it's a good idea to track people's money. Hence continuation of the word TIN.

No, the Europeans also use. And they get their TIN a few days after they are born and will keep all their life. The baby not even need to be a citizen to be welcomed in the big family of taxpayers biggrin.gif
