Hi,

Received this offer from one of the bank. Details as below.
- A fixed deposit (similar amount) per annum whereby one-off for the 1st year and multiple deposits for the subsequent year.
- Counted by the date of 1st deposit as a year for the dividend.
- The principle is compulsory to be deposit annually for six years before being able to withdraw.
- After the 6th year, if you haven't withdrawn the accumulated principle - you can enjoy continuous dividends for a maximum of 20 years.
- Dividends for frontliner - 30% p.a (!!!) - limited time & quota for selected group of individual.
- Minimum of RM10k/year. Don't overcommit as you need to deposit a similar amount every year for six years.
- If you haven't withdrawn the dividends, it will be compound for the next year with an average of 5-8%. However, you are free to withdraw the dividends as you like.
- Possible to open more than one policy.
- Policy approval is based on overall financial status.
- Limited quota.
- Insured by PIDM.

The guaranteed of 30% p.a for maximum of 20 years was in black & white on my form from the bank, not agent's lips.

Most likely going to open for both of my kids if all okay.
Thanks in advance for all the input and insight!

6 years, rather than 20 years you guys mentioned.

you just don't get it.

the payment is for 6 years, if you take out anywhere before 20 years, you'll lose money. Simple as that.

Putting aside this money with your mentioned 200k budget under investment could potentially get you RM3,343,351.36 - RM6,446,003.55 without being locked.

hmm.gif i would not call it wealth preservation though....
yes, the money will not disappear for sure in in the next 20 years....but i am just not sure it can "preserve" my wealth in the next 20 years.....will the returns be enough to covers the inflation cost?  hmm.gif  hmm.gif

It's called Preservation when you still "see" your money in that account, but don't expect it to beat inflation.

If you're looking in growing your wealth, then this is not the right plan for you.

ideally this is the last place few places to put into your surplus funds otherwise, invest your money instead if you're not cash rich yet.
