I'm doing a simple calculation based on months, might not be that accurate, but close enough, so don't flame me.

Let's say you are taking option no.1 which is 2 months @ 3.58% and 15 months @ 4.28%, placing $100,000 for example.
That means you are placing at $100,000.00 for 17 months.

The first 2 months your interest would be $100,000 x 3.58% per annum (=$3,580.00), divide by 12 months and then multiply 2 months = $596.67

The next 15 months your interest would be $1000,000 x 4.28% per annum (=$4,280), divide by 12 months and multiply by 15 months = $5,345.00

Therefore total interest you receive for 17 months is $596.67 + $5,345.00 = $5,946.67.

To get average interest amount per annum, you divide the $5,946.67 by 17 months and multiply by 12 months which is 5,946.67/17 x 12 =$4,197.65.

Therefore average interest would be $4,197.65 divided by RM100,000 and multiply by 100 (to get percentage) = 4197.65 / 100,000 x 100 = 4.19765% per annum (which is close enough to 4.2%)

The above is my understanding and should it not be correct, please by all means correct me.

Tldr; lol.

I will just go for package 1. After 2mths uplift half and put it in other investments.

The other half still running on 4.28%.

I'm not an expert in this area, not sure if I can help. What I would do is to call hlb, your fund source bank and fpx, furnishing all the details, especially reference numbers.

Always keep ref no/receipt for all important transactions.
