from what i monitor... CIMB reduces their monthly rate by 0.1%, but then again, other banks were offering at 3.15% and CIMB offered 3.25%...so not surprised that CIMB lower the rates...

so do you mean all banks or just certain banks like what i mentioned above?

Out of curiousity, any idea why banks seems to lower down the FD rates?

i don't really have concern on this...but if they implement another law to limit how much you can take out per year after 60...then i'm gonna be pissed...
if i remember, they did propose something like this...and reason given was the people dunno how to control their expense and finish up the money as soon as they get it...

well...it's my money...you don't control how much i can withdraw....
prrrfffff

For those who placed extra money in KWSP.
KWSP proposed that that eligibility to withdraw at age 55 to be extended until age 60.
According to deputy CEO of KWSP, this is in line with the gov policy of new retirement age of 60.
It was in the news since 2012 but now in the news again.
