If unsure, start with Singapore Savings Bonds (SSB) or T-Bills, they are government-backed investment tools and can be a good starting point.

Hello Anon!

One option that is not often readily explored is alternative investments which can give higher returns in comparison to bank products or insurance plans - you can read more about one here.

Similar to Arpita below, my job is to help investors to make better financial decisions. I can help you by introducing some options after understanding more about your investment/saving needs.

Don't be shy to reach out to me via the link in my profile :)
