OCBC offers fixed deposit placements for CPF ordinary account savings at 3.4% a year
COMPETITION for cash has gone beyond the savings in customers’ bank accounts, OCBC : O39 -0.32% is now asking Central Provident Fund (CPF) members to place their ordinary account savings for fixed deposit at 3.4 per cent per annum.
Many will rush to put in their cpf OA into the FD in ocbc.
Then cpf got no choice but to raise the cpf OA to 4.5% ?

Normally the worst rates for S$ FD are from DBS.

CPF will never raise the savings rate
Because if they do once, must do twice or thrice
So they rather get local banks to do it, lagging behind the Inflation Rates
