The rate is good. 

I didn't expect it to be above 4%.

Like stock hard to catch the lowest or highest price so best is apply every 2 weeks to "average up" the rate lor. Means spread out your capital as you cannot know which issue is 4% and above haha

CPF a bit tricky they give interest based on lowest balance of the month. Say you take out this month to apply that amount lose CPF 2.5% interest for that month. Then when TBill mature depend when also another month. So for that amount  you need to factor in 8 months of CPF lost interest vs what TBill interest give you which is only for 6 months.

If that's true, then CPF Board is cheating

If Singapore T Bill is 4.07%

Wouldn't grade A bonds pay 7-8%?

If there a fund for such bonds?

RE: Latest 6-month T-bill's interest at 4.07% - Lukongsimi - 28-09-2023

Hope up to 5% next month

T-bills are traded, right ?


so drop in value can be more than the interests paid ?

RE: Latest 6-month T-bill's interest at 4.07% - Lukongsimi - 28-09-2023

SSB charges $2
Tbill gives 4.058%

None in CPF management has passed track record managing other country's pension funds.

CPF Board management doing very basic unsophisticated plain vanilla - a routine boring job.

T Bills are short term 90 days and 180 days
Normally hold until maturity.
It's discounted so, pay less than face value.

SG Govt Bonds are long term

Number 5 step is for newbie. Oldbird may want to consider competitive bid reason being TBill only allocate X amount for non-competitive bid. For hot TBill this X fill up then yours become random pick so you may not get all you apply for.

.Feedback.
1. A failure to maximise returns for future retirement.
2. Pension funds are artificially peg @ lower interest rates against general market practice.
3. No independent checks and balances.

Asia largest financial centre cannot have a dodgy management handling national pension funds
