Can anyone tell us what's the correlation between CPF pension funds and banks 3 months FD rates..?

Please tell us why you think the current OA fixing is correct and it's the best fixing methodology W/O any choice?
Why it's not lopsided?
NOTE
CPF Board annual statement Assets do not have a single entry showing banks SGD fixed deposits

OA rate won't be going up.
(BTW it's not based on 3 month deposits. It's on full year deposits. But calculated every quarter ).
What we can hope for is SA and RA interest going up.
IMO we are getting close to that point . If interest rates keep going up for next few months, we may see an increase in SA and RA rates in first half of 2023

RATE STRUCTURE
How are CPF interest rates determined?
Ordinary Account interest rate
Interest rate from 1 October 2022 to 31 December 2022: 2.5% per annum
Reviewed quarterly, this rate is computed based on the 3-month average of major local banks' interest rates1 (subject to the legislated minimum interest of 2.5% per annum).

"Singapore’s GIC boasts record rate of return"
"Temasek posts 24.5% one-year return; posts record investments and divestments
CLAUDIA TAN.
NOTE
IF we assume average of GIC ROI @ 5.5% + Temasek ROI @ 24.5% = 30% / 2 iE 15%
Realistically, CPF OA members should have ROI 15% - 0.25% (IE. Less handling fee/commission ) = 14.75%
@ ROI 14.75% which CPF Board investment expertise can easily achieved.
And Not interest @ 2.50% pa.based on local banks FD rates.

As the results, No reason to question their promises or doubt them

The complaint about CPF OA interest rates should not be by comparison between it and the banks' promo rates.
Should be about why our money is used to generate high returns, but we only get a much lower return , based on a formula that will never ever result in higher % than the base of 2.5%? (Cos the banks refuse to increase their board rates. Cos the people keep dumping their money into the banks for the promo rates , the banks don't need to increase board rates .)

Already said so many times, CPF cannot retire happily.
Still dont believe. Cant even fight inflation after massive printing works.

CPF issue: GIC manages CPF monies along with other govt funds: DPM Tharman
Central Provident Fund (CPF) monies are not managed as a separate entity by the Government of Singapore Investment Corporation (GIC), they are pooled and invested with the rest of the Government's funds, said Deputy Prime Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam on Tuesday, July 8, 2014. -- PHOTO: ST FILE
