How can they squeeze those whose feeding them?

A dumbfounded Finance Minister must be puzzled by CPF CEO suppressing OA interest rates when every major economy is hiking interest rates.
Why is he bullying age pensioners?

BS
Let say a person earns $5k each month
$60k per year excluding bonuses and yearly increment etc and spend $30k each year.
A flat selling at $400k it only takes less than 15 years to own a new flat
With government subsidies etc
HDB flat still unaffordable?

Because they were paying us 2.5% while bank FD was 0.xx % ?

CPF board may consider raise the interest rate higher than 2.5 %
when GST increases to 8% next year
The tricky part is can CPF increases flat loan rate higher than 2.6%?
Is 2.6 % loan rate permanently fixed?

CPF Board objective is to manage pension funds and provide maximum returns for future retirements.
CPF is not a bank so, rightly, should not get involved in loans and mortgage financing .as they are done by commercial banks.
Why compete with the banks?

Of cos can. No doubt can.

The loan rates depends on the banks and on HDB. They are the ones giving the loans and charging interest. CPF is just a mode of payment we use instead of paying cash

Even today, many Singapore still don't understand how HDB mortgages work,?
It shows the Govt, CPF and HDB did not provide clear instructions and definition on mortgages

There is a fixed formula.
You want to blame someone... go blame the banks, and perhaps the thousands of ordinary people who go rushing for the promo FDs. As long as the banks refuse to raise their board rates for interest, the resulting rate for OA will not rise.
The banks can take in enough deposits from the promos , so they won't raise the board rates

Nah. Shows that many people don't bother to read .
Personally I find CPF regulations confusing. But at least I know where the loan for my HDB came from ...HDB, not CPF . Fully paid up long ago.
