Hi. Suggest that you choose : whichever that is convenient to you. this is because savings Interest rate is getting worst , so: 1. Could keep 10k at Singlife (just download their app and sign up and transfer fund over) for 2.5% up to 10k. Note: Interest is not guaranteed but so far users all got 2.5% for the past 2 months. Can move funds out once they cut the rate. 2. Whichever bank that is convenient for you but only for temporary. Once you find a better investment instrument, which you can read more at Seedly blog (this same website ), then you could invest for better returns. Note: Please remember to do due deligence and not just follow others. All the best ! 😄

For payment in foreign currencies, best to use Youtrip / Revolut card (free to apply, top up and works like debit card) as they use market rate with no extra charges and sometimes the rate even better than money changer. If you wish to transfer $ overseas, can consider Revolut or Transferwise. Cheers.
