Many FD gangs  know this ... trust deficit i would say.
They trust the bank . dont trust Kenanga  with their money,
new lah etc all excuses..

I think you might have seen my nickname in FD thread & I was a staunch believer prior to last month & don't really dare to invest in shares or unit trusts.
But after knowing Kenanga, Touch n Go GO+ (at promo rates) & crypto savings, it is too hard to resist putting FD funds there.

There's higher risk in crypto savings although juicy interests.. Even if stablecoins. Best read up to know what you're investing in fully and don't put all the money into them. I only dare invest up to 10% of my portfolio in crypto.

I have put some money in KDI Save too like a savings account since it can be liquidated easier than FD but I do not even dare to put into KDI Invest.

For crypto, is just USDT Earn account with some funds used to explore trading & DCI.
There is still a lot in FD as some were put before the interest rate went down with a tenure 3 to 4 years previously so ya, is still well diversified.

yeah i remember you, do u remember me ?. I am heavy in FD also, i have substantial amount  at 4.85% till end 2023 BR FD.

all these other stuffs just play play only.

Definitely remember. 4.85% is like virtually extinct at least for a few years to come.
3% daily compounded interest in Kenanga already very happy.
However, crypto savings at 12.3% is like too good to resist trying.

hi all, one question.

for KDI save, the daily interest will only calculate based on the principal we deposit in or (principal + interest we earn daily)?

cant find this in the faq page.
*
Is principal + interest we earn daily, this is called daily compound interest.

Just done the calculation, 1st 50k KDI Save 3.5%, next 150k 3%, then anything above all 2.5%
*
Anyone else tried doing the calculation?
I just checked mine, is way below 50k but still getting 3%. Or is it only for new deposits?

*
Yes, it shows 3.5% on the dashboard details

The 100k is indeed confusing but i kind of got the point, is 3.5% p.a. compounding interest, not 3.5% p.a. prorated on a daily basis

good the higher the better but
that 3.5% was abit of an exaggeration.
Yes
marketing gimmick.
are you sure is 3.5%?

i checked min only  3.44% , 1day interest RM4.26

If really 3.5%, it should be RM4.33

i checked other 4 accs all same 3.44%
no such thing as 3.5%
*
My 'rough' calculation was right, or maybe for some it already took effect while others have not.
Here is the explanation i received yesterday:

Thank you for contacting KDI. We apologize for the confusion. Since 1st Oct, we have a new promotional rate for KDI Save which is at 3.5% p. a. (for the first RM50,000). Since Oct 1st, falls on weekend, the calculation will be calculated on Monday as we do not operate during weekend. The calculation is meant for Saturday, Sunday and Monday. You may check your account again after 5 pm as the updates is between 4pm to 5 pm during business days only.

Is this true? I checked my records. Sat and Sun was still on 3%. Only Mon was on 3.44% (50k) and 2.956% (>50k). If they updated on Mon, why Sat and Sun is not updated too?  shocking.gif
Kenanga should have an announcement section to update "what's new" to prevent confusion. Their feedback section has weird number-of-words limitation. Cannot even describe my problems. wtf.
