Hi new to FD , is there any calculation as to whether the interest rate is worth ? sorry i read the first page and still abit confused.
*
worth what? the higher the better?

some banks advertise quite straight forward or put it as straight-forward. 4.2% p.a. for one year that's it.

some banks (example pbb) 4.08% first 6 months, 4.28% next 6 months. now if you look at the advert it says...

QUOTE
effective campaign rate for 12-month place is 4.18%p.a.


obviously choose 4.2%. calculation not necessary Just need to look at fine prints, etc.

Question: step up (example rhb) vs rollover (pbb)... Are they the same?

My understanding rollover will subject to changes in opr but not step up...

Edit: This is abit late but maybank 3-month fd... 1st and 2nd month 3.55%, 3rd month 4.55%. Effective 3.88%.

Min25k for individual... 50k for sme/business banking acct.

Ends 12th april.

1) Just wanna check... will step-up rates fd be affected by change in opr?

2) does citibank not offer promo fd? or just the lack of convenience due to limited branches?
