To grow their nest egg further, Singaporeans are urged to keep S$20,000 in their OA, and S$40,000 in their SA before investing the remaining funds.
For those below 55 years old, this money can earn them an extra 1% interest per annum. For those 55 years old and above, this earns them an extra 2% on their first S$30,000, and 1% on the remaining S$30,000.
Additionally, Singaporeans are urged to have a CPF investment account with UOB, DBS, or OCBC.
