I just called to Raja Chulan branch:

This 4.6% for 2 years FD promo is available until 30th of November, not previously
stated as available until end of October.

2 Interest Payment methods:
(1) Above 50 years old can get monthly interest
(2) Less 50 years old can get half yearly interest

Min deposit is RM 10K

This FD promo is HOT...

Why put hlb when you can put ambank 4.6% for 2 years?

Ambank must be desperate. Giving so high interest when other banks offering 4.2% like that. Wonder other bank will follow or not. hmm.gif

I think Am Bank 5 Year 4.55% is not sellable.

Imagine, it does not make sense same bank offers 5 years 4.55% and 2 years 4.6%.. rclxub.gif

Am bank is seeing that the response of 5 years 4.55% is slow, therefore Am Bank
quick quick offers 2 years 4.6% which is more attractive..

Hopefully other banks will follow to offer more attractive FD promo.. thumbup.gif

If like that, if bank can match mbsb rates, sure mbsb will increase their rates so not to be outdone.

Will people pull out of Maybank 4.5% for ambank 4.6%? hmm.gif

Is it worthwhile with extra 0.10% but lock up for extra 1 yr?

if put 10k to each FD, only difference is avg RM0.78 interest per month (mbb RM37.60/mo vs ambank RM38.39/mo)

as usual, this crude comparison excludes where the interest is credited. I just calculate from the origin of the fund.

for me, mbb's is acceptable since i'm not looking for tenure longer than 12 mths. if got bullet, still can put some minimal amount for ambank geh smile.gif

Yes. You won't get higher than that. All banks are offering 4.2% I have already showed, effective rates will be >4.6%

bbgoat, 'bout MBB GIA, when do they credit the monthly interest?

1 month after placement? or follow calendar month @ 1st ?

What lah, you are so eager. Did not ask that question. Put mine on the 5th. My guess is on the 5th or the date you put in the GIA-i. biggrin.gif

QUOTE(Bonescythe @ Oct 20 2015, 02:12 PM)
Last year this mth, fd rate rate best was 3.85 range

Are you kidding me? HLB promos are never attractive. Cannot even match affin bank. How can you say their long term rates are the best.
