How did Endowus manage to secure MAS approval to use CPF funds for investments?

Considering how stringent the gov is when it comes to investing with CPF Funds, how did Endowus secure their trust? What compromises and measures were taken?

Hi Anon,

No compromises were made by CPF, UOB kayhian and us have to make sure we are compliant to all regulatory requirements and audits for us to be allow us to invest CPF monies.

We worked within the framework and got through CPF, MOM, and MAS before we can invest CPF monies. It was a long process. Hope this helps!

Should I a) use my CPF OA funds to invest in Endowus or b) transfer my OA balance into SA to earn 4% interest? (Assume house is already bought and no other use for OA funds)?

45 yrs old, saving for retirement. I'm thinking of investing my OA aggressively using Endowus. But does that mean I need to liquidate all my funds by 65 yrs old latest to optimize CPF Life payouts?

Should I use my CPF to fund my house or should I take a bank loan and use the money in CPF to invest?

How easy to use our CPF OA to invest using Endowus? How fast is the withdrawal like when you need the CPF OA to purchase house?

Started investing with 1) Cash: SWRD, 2) CPF-OA thru Endowus: Lion Global Infinity US 500 Stock Index Fund only, 3) SRS thru Endowus: Dimensional Global Core Equity Fund only. Does it look ok?
