RHB latest 4.08% pa for 8 mths. Can place online. Not even a special promo!
Those who have online FD from recent MBB promo can certainly move over there when matured.

I think most of the below still hold true, rates stated are for mass market and not special rates for premier banking customers.

Re-cap on highest rates per tenure:
Ambank 4% 2 months
Muamalat 4% 3 months
HLB 4.13% 6 months
Alliance 4.38% 12 months (special event)

US fed just raised another 25bps.
https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/01/fed-rate-de...point-hike.html

now, we wait BNM 9 march meeting...

if RM stays <4.25 to the $, good chance BNM will not raise.

but for sure, no reduction yet...?

RM was 4.28 yesterday... Today 4.23

Unfortunately.. my fd has not matured when they announced 4.8. and I already put all that matured earlier to 4.5

But thinking about it. Maybe I should have just uplifted and put to 4.8.

But I would have put all that matured later this month to 4.8 if still there.

That's the down side of FDs. If want flexibility, can try Standard Chartered Privilege$aver savings account, as long as you fulfil their conditions, you can get up to 6.15% p.a.

Sure make you buy all sorts of useless UT plans. Lose kaw kaw already.
2% of the 6.15% require UT purchase. If exclude that, it's 4.15% nett.

Don't need buy UT. Just that if don't buy, you get 4.15% on your savings account instead of 6.15%.

It's not an FD, rates can change any time.

Then you shall ask CIMB if upcoming rate increase will you get locked rate be increased too? I wish this really happen since upcoming rates is increasing nowadays Hahaha..... Notice says applied to all but may not apply to those already placed before rate revised unless you double confirm with bank and not simply make your own assumption.

TIA have no concept of locking. It's in black and white in T&C which said you may also risk loss of capital.

Because TIA is islamic banking, which prohibits Interest (riba). So TIA is considered as investment (TIA = term investment account), with a "proposed" profit rate.

I've never tried CIMB TIA, but I've used HLB TIA for a long time and they've always honoured their stated rate.

Also note that TIA deposits are not protected under PIDM.
*
There are plenty of Islamic FDs lah , every Islamic side of our Malaysian banks offer them ...

Do not confuse or mix or profess them to be the same as a TIA. It's a completely different product, and not because of any relation to Islamic banking.

Some like RHB also usr the term "term deposit".

I'm surprised the product has not been standardised by BNM.

Full name is fixed term deposit.. here better known as fixed deposit, elsewhere term deposit, but it's a deposit.

Term investment account (TIA) is an investment account by comparison (continuing earlier thread with another forumer), so it shouldn't be hard to differentiate deposits and investments even from the name alone. 😅
