Currently I have 4 FDs...each maturing at Mar, Jun, Sep and Dec. Thinking to add on another FD to roll on monthly basis hmm.gif

Monthly basis is not worth it. Min 3 mths as rate is very much better.

FD rates due to economy wont go up, can only go down so its better to lock in for longer period.(if you think not utilising of course)..

That's not true. It all depends on what kind of crisis we're facing. Interest rate shot up to 10% back in 97. And you shouldn't have written "due to economy" because the key interest rate can either go down or up due to economy.
*
I agree it can go either way, however looking at the present scenario with Euro having problems plus imminent local elections, I doubt that BNM will raise rates in the near term.
P/s: I still have a copy of FD with 9.xx% pa.

Just for info, OCBC FD deposit comes with slip/receipt that you can keep and is not needed for upliftment..

I have one question-

Taking this interest rate plan for example:
3 Months 3.5%
6 Months 3.65%

Isn't it I would earn more if I put the deposit cash for 3-month term instead of 6-month term as the interest i earn will be compounded into the deposit cash and roll over for the next 3-month tenure?
*
You will get less...if i am not wrong

Principal Deposit Date Maturity Date Total RM%
RM10,000.00 11-06-12 11-09-12 RM10,088.22
RM10,088.22 11-09-12 11-12-12 RM10,176.25

Total= RM10,176.25


RM10,000.00 11-06-12 11-12-12 RM10,183.00

However 3 mths is good value compare to 1 mth FD

PIDM is agovernment agency set up to insure deposit up to RM250k. Bank Rakyat is practically guaranteed by the Government upto ?.? Both will ensure depositors are paid in the event of bank default which is highly unlikely as BNM under Zeti's mandate is a highly acknowledge banker. Both can be trusted, of course. In the event that you dont trust either, then only way go overseas for depositing. I may imagine that overseas bank, in one case as i remember, paid big value depositor more percentage that small depositor. Dont shoot me as rely on memory only.. tongue.gif

It wasn't a one-off thing. This "profit paid upfront" scheme is still offered not just by CIMB Bank, but also many other banks in Malaysia too such as Maybank, HSBC, RHB Bank, Bank Rakyat, just to name a few.

Actually BNM has already caused the rates increase indirectly. Thats why since 2011 last quarter , there has been a lot of promotion by the banks for deposit, aka fixed deposits.. brows.gif
