You can always put it in first and then see how.
For me, I use the e-savers account because it is very convenient to transfer the money to and fro with internet banking.  To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.: Asia Solution Kenetics

Its fine? or any better recommand? :rock: | | | | | If you are putting in eSaver, might as well consider Maybank if you have at least SGD 5,000 to deposit as they give 1.68%.
Maybank internet banking is decent. I am an account holder myself and have been very satisfied.

You may want to consider treasury bills. More information can be found here at the Singapore Government Securities Website: http://www.sgs.gov.sg/
My blog also has articles on how you can invest in treasury bills.
For best FD interest, can consider http://www.qotion.com or Maybank. http://www.maybank.com.sg

eSaver with 1.5-2% is the way to go. U get almost FD rates. Plus you can open the very interesting Xtrasaver account to go with it... no minimum balances for both too. | |

What does Xtrasaver do?
And also? Don't get prucash. It's not worth it at all. To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.: Asia Solution Kenetics

I know of good low risk investment - I have personally been looking around for such lobang in the past. Now I have invested almost all my money in these areas.
1) Fix Deposit in foreign currency. You faced only exchange rate risk.
2) Land Banking. Potentially very high returns with capital protection. The way a lot of rich people gets rich. You must know which are the good and reliable company with track record to bank with.
If you are really interested to find out more, pls contact me at workdiana@gmail.com. | |

I think the prudential investments are doing quite good. It seems they recently launched some new funds which are doing very well like the Currency income fund. Maybe you talk to a prudential adviser.. I got a freind working there as well, let me know if u need any help.. | |

Google is your friend.
It's a really long debate in other forums and I don't wish to cut and paste. Just search on google and you will find what you want. To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.: Asia Solution Kenetics

I think now offering 2% per annum. You may want to check ou Standard Chartered as well. Saving Account offers 1.5%. | |

OCBC has one monthly savings account also not bad. It is also offering a high interest. Do refer to OCBC website for more information. | |
