Personally I think this new flexible account to cater those others side who always demand 10k withdrawal...

This consider as combo of bad & good moved..

Bad - indirectly surrender to those 10k withdrawal gengs

Good - less pressure on EPF to perform... Since dividends would be wayyy lower... Probably just minimum 2.5% 😁

I agree that this proposed "flexible" account would incur only the statutory or minimum dividend.
The other accounts would be as usual past div rates.

This Acct 3 thingy would be on application only. If you dont apply, status quo it is and remains Acct 1 and 2.

Its in that link from mid-year I shared in earlier posts, admittedly rather old, however I feel this is the way they would go.
This could change though, and they might just find it easier to roll it out across the board. Lets see how it goes.

Any tiered dividend will only lead to withdrawal or lesser contribution.
Now EPF already promotes voluntary contribution
- look at i-Saraan
- look at the recent 3k voluntary contribution tax rebate

They gonna do tiered dividend ?
I hopefully not.

In capital terms, you lose 1 people that contributes 100k
you had to gain back 100 people that contributes 1k each.
It's not democracy (1 people 1 vote)  in capital market.

I don't think it will happen anytime soon, if at all.
Its not a priority for now, just the pipe dream of some delusional folks.
Probably all the hoo-ha on these happens only prior to-GE time.

If they state a higher amt than 240K, the govt would be under greater pressure to do something

Tak faham macam mana boleh contribute 100k per year
I think the increments of self contribution rate to 100k only benefited t20
Those m40 and B40 totally see no benefits of this initiative by Gov

Any reason why gov previously want to increase it to 100k? Any benefits to gov?
*
The 100K self contrib per year is just a raise of the maximum limit, nobody is obliged or forced to put in this money. Its to encourage everyone to save for retirement, whether they can afford or not, its up to the member to figure it out.

I just hope when the day come that EPF disallowed full withdrawal past 55/60 and forces all of us to take monthly withdrawal, that EPF changes this policy of not accruing div on payment yet settled due to monthly fixed withdrawal.

else it is blatantly stealing...

Applicable to those with lower balances upon reaching 55, these are the people who need help in managing their retirement funds.
I would say up to a max balance of rm600K would be a safe figure. Anything above, status quo.

can withdraw anytime... with lower interest rate too  tongue.gif

anyhow...

hopefully I can opt out this account 3...

don't want unnecessary split of my $$$ in EPF

Me too. I hope they make an opt-out feature for members who don't need or want Acct 3.
Or a means to transfer funds from Acct 3 to Acct 1/2.
