Is there any criteria to open an account in OCBC? What is the difference from a iQ Account as compared to other account type?

Most banks cut the interest rate for FD to 3.5% p.a. since Dec 1st, 2008.

Too bad then... must be due to current economic situation. I see Maybank is still at 3.7%. Don't know when will they revise the rate...

Added on January 8, 2009, 11:06 pmAre there any charges or requirement if we put money in foreign FD? Seems like NZD has the highest rate now. Correct me if I'm wrong...

Foreign FD seems interested but the foreign currency you invested might even drop further against MYR as there are many uncertainties. Your earned interest will not be enough to cover your losses. However, if the currency goes up against MYR, you earned from the appreciation of the currency along with the interest too!

Good Luck!
