Some background: My parents are both in their early 50s, they own a 4-room HDB flat but beyond that, have little to no savings. My priority is to build a retirement fund (for them). I (25, F) am not interested in legacy or inheriting this. What is the best way to maximise this much welcome injection of funds?

It would be ideal to convert this money into a guaranteed stream of income for life. Consider using annuities that also doesn't draw down their capital so that they can choose to withdraw some of the money in a lumpsum in the future should they wish too.
There are annuities that can give you a projected 4.2-4.5% of their capital after 5 years for life.
Another option would be a dividend paying global fixed income portfolio. You can also expect a 4% dividend payout with potential growth and overall low volatility.
