Frequently Asked Questions
Total Account Balance
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.
Maturity
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
Withdrawal
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
How do you compute the early withdrawal fee for Fixed Deposit (FD)?
There are multiple factors that determine the early withdrawal fee for a Fixed Deposit, including:
- The rate quoted on the premature withdrawal date; and
- Remaining number of days which are not fulfilled ie. from premature withdrawal date to original maturity date
Alternatively, you can access digibank (Fixed Deposit Premature Withdrawal service) on the premature withdrawal date to check if there is any applicable premature withdrawal fee for your placement.
We encourage you to place a shorter tenor FD if you foresee using your funds in the short-term. This can help you avoid any early withdrawal fee or reduction/loss of interest earned. Learn More
Others
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 exchange rates?
You can refer to our foreign currency 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.
Deposit Insurance Scheme
Singapore dollar deposits of non-bank depositors and monies and deposits denominated in Singapore dollars under the Supplementary Retirement Scheme are insured by the Singapore Deposit Insurance Corporation, for up to S$75,000 in aggregate per depositor per Scheme member by law. Monies and deposits denominated in Singapore dollars under the CPF Investment Scheme and CPF Retirement Sum Scheme are aggregated and separately insured up to S$75,000 for each depositor per Scheme member. Foreign currency deposits, dual currency investments, structured deposits and other investment products are not insured.
Conversions between currencies involve fluctuations and are subject to exchange controls. If you are converting from another currency to place the deposit and intend to convert it to the original currency, exchange rate fluctuations could cause the converted amount to be less than your original amount.
