Hi! I'm an undergrad with a new SC jumpstart account but was so bumped out to find out the rates decreased to 1% shortly after opening my account. Am considering Singlife given the 2.5% p.a. rates but they're relatively new to the market and I'm having some doubts...? The Seedly reviews of Singlife sounds pretty ok but any fellow undergrads/fresh grads that have it and have any personal anecdotes to share about it so far?

Hello there! Yes, you are right. SCB is revising its Jumpstart interest rate to 1% at the start of next month July. If you think the Jumpstart account yield is low, you might want to consider opening a Singlife account which yields 2.5% non guaranteed returns for your first $10,000. You can do a little bit of research first before opening an account with Singlife. Given that Singlife savings plan is capital guaranteed and is backed up by SDIC, I would say there are more pros than cons. One should select a product that has more pros than cons, rather than a product with no cons - because it just doesnt exist.
