yes, there is pressure now on BNM to lower rates as economic growth is slowing, borrowers squeezed.

at the same time, the RM continues to be weak at 4.652, not far from all time low of 4.695.

it will be the lesser of 2 evils.

my bet is a small rate cut (just to show "we care") is coming.

i plan to quickly renew my deposits next week! tongue.gif

On the short 3m and 6m, CIMB TIA rise too late and not attractive enuf.
HL TIA dropped from 3.99 % for 3m and 6m to 3.85 % and 3.95%. Now CIMB up 6m from 3.85% to 3.95%. !2m still at 3.9% but why take if 6m is better?
CIMB rise is not even good enough to beat HL previous drop. So where got attraction, unless say already overloaded in HL TIA?
*
dont forget HL TIA is 85:15 ratio. So u getting lesser than 3.85%

I notice that adding required additional sign up which is a turn off for me. As for bank Islam mostly not related to non-Malay. Now just left with Ambank.

rize now 5% for 5K. subsequent is 4%.
no lock in. just put in saving and get interest at the end of the month
valid till end of dec

Just to share. Have MBSB combo promo matured yesterday. A bit funny how their system works. On maturity date, your Principal and interest all goes back to Saving account. However, the locked cash in savings account is still unavailable until today. So for the locked cash part, it's maturity day + 1, then only become available balance.

mbsb fd is like that...sometimes i waited few days for it to mature. the countdown on days is inaccurate

@verbatin Im amazed that u're willing to invest in MYR. Even if u earn high interest from the bank, i doubt u can even gain any profit based on currency exchange rate.
