Anyone considering this? 4.18% for 15 months, 4.28% for 19 months, 4.38% for 24 months.

What do you guys think?

sifu already posted earlier. 4.18% for 15 months (casa 15%), 4.28% for 18 months (not 19 mths, casa 10%), 4.38% (no casa) for 24 months.

I'm keeping some USD abroad 5yrs ago hv been earning 3.5%-8% FD interest. I think that time is 3.3 then going through roller coaster and now 3.6. Wondering shd I convert back to RM for local FD rate?

yeah i saw that too & I tend towards the 9m 4.25% deal ...but being the skeptic I wouldn't set my hopes too high until I see the B&W

I guess it also depends on your outlook for MYR/SGD for say the next 15mths ... tradeoff interest with exchange diff

PS: kykit Yelen is hinting rise in US rates this year. how u see MYR/USD?

I can only start smiling when news broke in early Nov'14 (still 3.3) that USD index broken above its 30-year downtrend line and now appreciated by 9%.
I would rather worry MYR will be pegged again

3.5-8% for FD? USA FD has been close to zero and that is why they are implementing the QE...the local bank US$ FD is not even 1%.
*

lowest 3.5% is our local bank (awarded Best Foreign Bank) & highest 8% is their local micro finance institution

This morning I confirmed with SCB leng lui that the 15 mth 4.5% FD is over. But at 10.04pm she sent me an SMS saying the 4.5% FD is available but it is an Islamic FD.

For those interested can call SCB branch to check out further.

I am putting my FD to CB 1 month 9.18%  drool.gif  which is CB promotion for UT bundled with FD.  rclxms.gif

Ambank also has such FD bundle w UT where 3mths FD 11% or 6mths FD 7%, who dare brows.gif

Beware of the PBB clause of possible rate change with OPR. I have went for RHB but ended up with 7.8% FD bundled with ASG fund.    biggrin.gif

have placed SCB Saadiq (Islamic) 15 Months - 4.5%

- interest will be paid every 6 months
- open a RM20 Basic Savings Account-i (BSA) for interest to be credited
- BSA Hibah (interest) for upto RM100k - 0.02% (based on historically)
- ATM/Debit Card cost RM8
- ATM withdrawal from SCB - FOC
- ATM withdrawal from HSBC/OCBC/UOB - RM1.00
- ATM withdrawal from local bank (MEPS) - RM4.00 (FOC if convert BSA into salary a/c)

all fees are b4 GST

didn't ask source of fund but that CS lengzai try sell UT/insurance
also, FD cert only state 1.25% at the "for internal use only" box. reason that's additional rate on top of board rate, 4.5% not stated
I'll receive sms to confirm purchase of commodity (typical islamic FD procedure) and CS said not to reply yes or no. If I reply yes they will deliver that commodity product to my house as prove. LOL !
