Rubbing shoulders with other HNWI, you are my man.

I withdrew all my deposits with BR already, as I was feeling lazy to renegotiate what with my paltry funds and since other banks FD promos is enticing enough. On the long run , once all the promos are gone , then will redeposit back again.

So, you have admitted to be HNWI ? rclxms.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

In those days before PIDM, banks deposit are guaranteed by the government to the max of 60k only. Finance Inst and Kooperasi deposits are not guaranteed. In the run during the kooperasi debacle of during the 90's, govy are forced to bailed out the kooperasi using public funds due to political pressure.

As a result of banks run during the financial crisis, BASEL published guidelines for Effective Deposit Insurance System.

Since govt needs to bailout so why not make some money out of it. As it is , banks need to pay certain percentage for PIDM protection.

Bank Rakyat could afford to pay out higher interest rates as their core business is personal loans plus certain higher risk loans. I could not find any official statement that its deposits are guaranteed by the govt of the day other than unofficially from BR personnel. Other than that, its a govt back kooperasi , Islamic, its shares are held by bumis, so no govt of the day will let it fail.

Hi guys, I just updated Post No.1 and my Fixed Deposit Page.

FYI, Maybank is also still offering Step Up 3+3+3 (total 9 months) effective interest rate 4.15%. As usual, Maybank promo until quota reached.

And I noted that BoomChaCha doing a freaking impressive job for Post#2 where he has taken the trouble to list so many FD Promos.

Side notes - while I was away I read that MBSB profit took a dive whereas most commercial banks reporting record profits for the last few quarters. Also KFH planning to exit Malaysia.

Hello GenX.
First of all, thank you for your incredible sharing.
But i do have one question, i failed to find this step up interest rate at M2B website. May you share about how can one apply for the Step Up FD?
Counter walk in? Thanks a lot.
??!!

For Mayban 3+3+3 step-up placement just walk-in to branch. No need to 'apply' .

Anyone did the Alliance FD Gold 12 month promo?
The free gift only for new PB customers or also applicable to existing PB customers?

Maybank, RHB and UOB seldom advertise their straight forward FD Promos Interest Rates in their websites.

If you walk into a RHB or UOB branch, usually they will have some pamphlet on their FD Promos and most of their staff are briefed on the promos.

However, for Maybank's case, not everyone in the branch may be aware what FD promos are being offered. Sometimes, Maybank can have more than 3 FD promos running concurrently, and in some instances, similar FD promo for conventional and Islamic banking. Click here to read my article Get More FREE MONEY With The Right and Best FD Promo - in this article I touched on Maybank "secret FD promo" where I first learned about it from members who reported about it in previous FD thread, i.e. from MGM and bbgoat. I had to speak to different people at a Maybank branch to learn about the T&C and to top that, the T&C varies between branches.

So, the best place to find out about latest FD Promos is to come to this thread and read Post#1 and especially Post#2 by BoomChaCha and also visit my Fixed Deposit Page and then call or go to the branch to check them out.

For your info, the Maybank 3+3+3 (9 months) FD promo effective rate 4.15%, the conventional promo ended as quota reached; but as of yesterday, it was still being offered under Islamic Banking. And minimum fresh fund RM25K (previously MBB FD Promos require minimum fresh fund RM20K but recently they increase it to RM25K). And Maybank FD Promos are opened to companies and societies too.

pidm is also the guarantee by govt of msia? smile.gif

it's doesn't really make sense for govt run banks to have pidm....

PIDM is B/W through legal and obligation to guarantee those deposit.

While in ordinary circumstances, gov is not obliged to guarantee bank doesn't go down nor guarantee every cent deposied, although most of time, gov did step in to intervene or bailout, but it doesn't guarantee they must.
This is the difference.

Don't know whether this has been mentioned here or not.

Heard that FD rate etc will be reduced as from 1 Jun 2015. How much I do not know.

I thought the last BNM meeting agreed to maintain the existing rate.

Cheerio.
