I am a 25yo with 70k savings. Is it feasible to transfer the remaining of my savings to Singlife ? Or are there other more attractive savings plan out there?

I already have Singlife(10k), CIMB fastsaver (joint acc with my boyfriend) , SC Jumpstart (20k) , a 3 year 2.1% endowment plan (10k) and investment in ETF via DBS.

I will be bto-ing and getting married in 2/3 years time hence would prefer to have my $$ accessible

Hey there.

If you are considering high-interest savings accounts, CIMB has recently announced today that they will be revising their interest rate for FastSaver. You might want to take a look here.

Other alternative choices that do not require spending/minimum sum include:

Singlife Account (2.5% p.a, capaital guaranteed, interest non guaranteed)

FSM Auto-Sweep Account (1.05%p.a, interest rates may be revised)

Stashaway Simple (1.9%, capital non guaranteed, interest non guaranteed)

SCB JumpStart (1%p.a, only for aged 18-26)

Crypto Earn (Depending on currency, as high as 16%p.a (CRO) without any prior staking. However, do take note of the volatility of cryptocurrencies. For higher interest rates, a fixed duration of 90 days is imposed before withdrawal can be made. Intetest is paid out every 7 days)

Crypto Exchange (20%p.a for CRO currency. Similar to Crypto Earn, just that fixed duration is set at 180 days. Interest is paid out daily)

Vivid Account (1.05% p.a for first 10k, 1.30% for 10k-20k)

Tiq 3 Year Endowment Plan (2.10%p.a, guaranteed)

Hey Anon, you should consider Etiqa Elastiq which offers 1.8% guaranteed interest p.a for the first 3 years. The lock-in period is relatively short at 3 months, as compared to 3 year endowment plans. After 3 months, it works like a bank account, just like the Singlife Account where you can make withdrawals or top-up/deposit into the account, giving you that flexibility and convenience you're looking for.

It's 1% if you transfer the remaining to Singlife. You can consider Stashaway Simple. The projected ...
