What is Total Balance?

Total Balance refers to the total amount of all placements in an SGD Fixed Deposit (FD) account. The amount includes all new and existing placements/renewals.

My FD account has an existing S$20,000 placement and I want to place another S$30,000. What is the applicable interest rate for the new S$30,000 placement?

With the new S$30,000 placement, the total FD account balance will be S$50,000 (S$20,000 + S$30,000). Hence, interest rate corresponding to the $50,000 - $99,999 range will apply. Learn More

My FD account has 2 placements which sum up to S$100,000 (S$30,000 + S$70,000). What is the applicable interest rate for each renewal?

The total FD account balance is S$100,000 (S$30,000 + S$70,000). Hence, interest rate corresponding to the $100,000 - $249,999 range will apply.

I have an existing placement of S$50,000 in my single name FD account and another S$50,000 in a joint FD account. What is the applicable interest rate for each renewal?

The placements are in different SGD FD accounts. Hence, interest rate corresponding to the $50,000 - $99,999 range will apply for each renewal.

Can I set the maturity instruction at the point of placement or after placement is done?

Yes, you may select one of the following maturity instructions:

Renew the principal and interest amounts;
Withdraw the principal and interest amounts; or
Renew the principal amount and withdraw the interest.

Can I close my account or withdraw my FD before its maturity date?

Yes, you can. However, you may earn less or no interest if you withdraw your fixed deposit before maturity. An early withdrawal fee may also be imposed. Learn More

How do I make a withdrawal for my Fixed Deposit (FD)?

You may perform a SGD FD withdrawal via digibank online. You will be able to check the interest received and the early withdrawal fee (upon premature withdrawal) during your withdrawal request via digibank online.

Foreign Currency Fixed Deposit, SRS SGD Fixed Deposit and SGD Structured Deposit accounts are not eligible for withdrawal via digibank online.

Will there be early withdrawal fee levied for SGD & Foreign Currency Fixed Deposit placements?

An early withdrawal fee may be imposed. Also, you may earn less or no interest if you withdraw your fixed deposit before maturity. Learn More

What happens if the balance in my FD Account is zero?

We will close your account if the balance remains zero for 12 months.

Where can I check for the current foreign currency exchange rates?

You can refer to our foreign exchange rates here.

What will happen to my FD Account if I die?

For personal account, only the administrator or executor of your estate can make a claim on your account. Upon receiving notification of your death, the existing maturity instructions (e.g. credit to Savings account) given previously will no longer be valid. Upon maturity, the Fixed Deposit (principal and interest) will be automatically renewed for the same tenor at the prevailing interest rate. If your Fixed Deposit Account is a joint account, the surviving account holder can claim the money in the account.

Could I opt for my personal/joint Fixed Deposit account transactions in one consolidated statement?

We are working on creating that seamless one-glance option for you and will keep you updated.

Why did branch place my Fixed Deposit placement under digiVault protection?

In view of the rise in scam volume over the years, we have reviewed our Fixed Deposits feature to help you safeguard your assets with us. From 02 September 2024, all Fixed Deposit placements done over the counter will automatically be placed under digiVault protection, unless you inform us otherwise at the point of transaction. This is as an added layer of security against scammers by preventing unauthorised digital withdrawals from your Fixed Deposit placements during your tenor.
