In light of high inflation, CPF OA could pay more interest to help us all cope

likely cpf oa will need to hit 3% by 2023.
even fixed deposits are paying higher than cpf nowadays.

If CPF OA increase, then those taking HDB loan will need to pay more.

I would benefit from any increase in CPF interest rate as I have no loan to service.
But, spare a thought for those people who are on HDB loans. Most are not rich people, unlike condo owners.
BTW, for many years they have been paying more interest on their loans than those who took bank loans. So now, when interest rates are going up, is it fair to up their % just cos banks are increasing their interest?
They must always be the losers?

And how much were the ones on bank loan paying?
Until recently people online were laughing at those on HDB loans, saying they stupid, pay so much more interest.
And as you pointed out , for about 2 decades !
So no matter what, they must keep paying more than others ?

Nope . The banks are offering much much less than 2.9% board rate on FD!
DBS, for one year deposit, balances below $20k it's 1.6%
Above that it's 0.05%

CPF interest is based on the banks' board rate.

As this a matter of deflationary blackhole all still cannot get it.
Don't ask give
like this Banks go negative YOU yes you deposit to make Banks positive again.
Banks give u higher rates.
Remember Banks already negative after totalling everything up.
asking to get something that does not exist like increasing cpf does not cut it.
another way is for you to borrow more like this say Maybank balance sheet not swee
Bank sends u blank cheque u filling the amt and sign. This action improve the positivity of Bank.
Next u must not pay up immediately. Ever hear the song 'Keeping it alive' ha ha ha HA!
those debts in balance sheet lives another day.
Volcker inflationary blackhole not same. Powell dealing with Deflationary Blackhole. more neg more the burden of debts increase. 0.25 to 3.5 is 13folds. Volcker 10% inflation to 20% was only 1X

Go and read up on the formula used
BTW, how would you like it if you took a 30 year fixed rate loan at 2.6%, then interest rates fall and fall and fall for many years , you see others paying much lower rates on their bank loans... Then when interest goes up , the bank tells you that no, you can't keep paying 2.6%, you need to pay more.
Would you think that that is fair?
Even though I'm not in that situation, I say that it's not fair .

Instead of stockup on sardines cans we might face a slut
Remember we facing a deflationary blackhole moving into it is dangerous
Burden of debts increase to infinity. Powell has open fire with 13folds from 0,25
want him to abandon?

No they are not reimbursing borrowers.
Savers want high interest... what's stopping them from putting into FD ?
If you are referring to the savings in OA, they have been earning extra high interest for 20 years. Of anyone is being "reimbursed " it's the ones in OA ( almost all of us), for 20 years.
