Need some advice from some Sifu.

Between Money Market Fund vs FD, which is better?
*
without consideration of rate of interest/returns....
(MM) Money market fund, longer to get money out....maybe hours later
FD can take money out in minutes

MM almost daily interest,...buy and sell anytime
FD most probably has a fixed duration to get the full interest amount

MM has no known rate to expect
FD has known rate to expect

MM no PIDM
FD has PIDM

so which you think is BETTER?

Has anyone here received any invitation SMS to renew expiring FDs at special rate of 3.95% p.a.  for 6 months?  The instruction is to send SMS to 68899 to participate.  But I did not received any acknowledgement SMS to notify me of successful registration. 
I called the CSA and I was told to resend, to check with my telco etc, which I did.
Does anyone have the same problem?

Hi all sifus here , I'm in abit of dilemma , hope someone can give some helpful insight .

Let's say , I have normal saving of RM100k , what should I do with the money ?
Was thinking to just resort to FD , but then there's so many rate , so far found Bank rakyat rate to be the highest (4.1%) but no PIDM .

If anyone have any other suggestions what to do with the money please let me know . Don't mind considering fund/gold investment as well .
*
hmm.gif because of this....
then have to consider....

1) how long do you need before you need to touch that money?
2) how much % of losses do you think you can take before you take action to shift that money out?
3) if you can consider these fund/gold investment ......why consider whether FD has PIDM or NOT?

btw, this is the exactly the same post as posted by "Gatsby IT" (before he deleted it)

Chartered bank have an account that I reckon is pretty good.

Base interest 0.5%
Deposit RM 3000 monthly, not difficult, can transfer from other bank. Additional 2%. So becomes 2.5%
Deposit RM 3000 monthly into FD will get more than 2.5% pa right?

Spend RM 1000 on their credit card and that is easy, another additional 1.5%. So becomes 4%
So they will pay you 1.5% for the RM1000 spend on their credit card?

If you monthly buy RM 1000 of their unit trust, additional 2%. Total 6%. But this one is subjective.
If you monthly buy RM 1000 of their unit trust, you get 2%,....but you pay them 6% Sales charges?

allow me to explain further. Maximum amount is RM 100,000. Interest paid monthly. Example is yearly for easier explanation.

Base interest 0.5%.
You get RM 500

Deposit RM 3000 monthly, not difficult, can transfer from other bank. Additional 2%. 
You get another RM 2000

Spend RM 1000 on their credit card and that is easy, another additional 1.5%.
You get another RM 1500

If you monthly buy RM 1000 of their unit trust, additional 2%. But this one is subjective.
You get another RM 2000

Do all that and you get 6000 or 6% of the 100,000.
*
since the maximum is already RM100 000,
the monthly RM3000 (one year RM 36 000) will get how many % interest pa? saving account rate?

the monthly 6% of each RM1000 sales charges for the unit trust will be 60 x 12 = RM 720

2.5%

But anything above the 100,000 threshold, you can always take out and put somewhere else. It's a saving account, not FD.
*
2.5% or 0.25%?
I think saving a/c rate cannot be so near fd rate.

You mean tis RM 3000 can recycle monthy....in to qualify then can take out again next day?
I am not sure but i think the system needs to capture fresh fund growth of RM 3000 per month ...so that the system wiil auto gives you "6%" at the end if 12 month cycle.

Hi. Need to ask about PIDM. Is this 250k threahold apply to each branch or per bank basis? How about joint name account? Eg. Personal already 250k with bank A. Can joint name also have another 250k with bank A that protected by PIDM? If not can joint name fd place with bank A other branch and entitle for protection? Thanks.

coverage is RM250,000 per depositor per member bank.
also separate deposit insurance protection of up to RM250,000 for a depositor with deposit accounts under each of the following categories:

*Conventional and Islamic deposit accounts
*Joint accounts - Joint accounts enjoy separate deposit insurance protection provided the records of the member bank disclose the names of the joint account holders

if not mistaken, there are over 40 PIDM insured financial institution....

An example of how separate deposit insurance protection would be applied for a depositor holding several accounts in a member bank is provided here:

the interest rate is getting ridiculous - it's hardly worth waking up if the deposited amount is not big....
*
according to this...
"Lower interest rates make it cheaper to borrow.
This tends to encourage spending and investment.
This leads to higher aggregate demand (AD) and economic growth.
This increase in AD may also cause inflationary pressures.

In theory, lower interest rates will:
Reduce the incentive to save. Lower interest rates give a smaller return from saving. This lower incentive to save will encourage consumers to spend rather than hold onto money.
