QUOTE(bbgoat @ Jun 29 2019, 09:46 AM) CIMB RM while trying to sell some wealth managemnt products, said second half of the year, BN may drop the OPR to 2.75%. The major banks will definitely drop further the FD promo. For me, 4% is the threshold I used. But may have to drop to 3.9% promo rate. But really, when the time comes, who knows ? How about u ? QUOTE(guy3288 @ Jun 29 2019, 10:01 AM) My lowest now is 4.38% HL online FD due in August ,any lower i will move to Amanah Saham Long term 5 yrs FD min 4.5%, minemostly BR 4.83% if not move elsewhere I have been seeking refuge under the UOB 3.93 since the recent OPR drop. My threshold will be 3.75%. Yeah, I will be looking at part EPF and part long term FD too when the inevitable comes.

Well let's see, the next meeting for OPR is 9th July. Having some FD with Ambank 4.4% maturing this month, so it will be a real pain if there is another 0.25 cut. Going to Ambank for another matured FD tomorrow and then will decide based on any new 1st July promo. Finger crossed ambank suddenly have a promo to retain me

QUOTE(lowya @ Jun 30 2019, 01:26 PM) if no promo by then, you are willing to burn 9 days for OPR news? If really no promo, then i will run to BR. If there is a promo with better rate after that, can still do some recalculation to see if it's worth it to premature withdraw and jump to new promo. That's the game

I feel some banks are taking today's outcome into consideration before deciding to launch any promotional rate or not. No promo rates from UOB, Ambank and CIMB is making me jittery.

BR 4.28% 11 months
Let's say for RM10000 deposit, interest at the end of tenure is RM392.33
Is this calculation correct?

QUOTE(Deal Hunter @ Jul 15 2019, 10:00 PM) No it is wrong. You still have no basic idea about how the interest is actually calculated by banks based on Interest Bearing Days (IBD). If you place in July, you will usually get 393.99 based on 336 IBD. If you place in August, you willl usualy get 392.82 based on 335 IBD. I won't explain about unusual exception cases as you obviously won't even understand yet how to benefit from them. Click "Show posts by this member only" to read my previous posts on the peculiarities of calendar arithmetic in FD so that you won't lose money and also to gain more money. Most folks do not have any idea at all what they are missing by simply operating buta buita. i know the difference between the no of days in a different month. I am using a simplistic calculation in my example.
