Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) Limited has refreshed its SGD Time Deposit promo for those looking to lock in a fixed return on Fresh Funds (in SGD) ๐โ
Update 9 Mar: Standard Chartered S’pore 9-Month SGD Deposit up to 1.2% p.a. from 9 Mar 2026
Placements made from 1 Mar 2026 earn up to 1.30% p.a. on a 9-month tenor (top tier applies). Compared with the previous 20 Feb update, the 12-mth headline rates are lower
Time deposits are handy for a “set-and-forget” approach: place funds once, hold till maturity, and collect interest based on the advertised rate
Quick highlights ๐ก
- Minimum placement: S$25,000 (Fresh Funds in SGD) ๐ฐ
- Tenor: 9 months (funds generally held till maturity) โณ
- Available to customers under Personal Banking, Priority Banking, or Priority Private (segment-based rates apply) โญ
- Digital placement via SC Mobile and Online Banking ๐ฑ๐ป
Promotional rates (Fresh Funds in SGD) ๐ฐ
The minimum qualifying placement is S$25,000 into a 9-month SGD Time Deposit. “Up to” refers to the highest eligible segment tier โญ
| Tenor | Minimum placement amount (Fresh Funds in SGD) | Promotional interest rate |
|---|---|---|
| 9 months | S$25,000 | Personal Banking: 1.20% p.a. Priority Banking: 1.25% p.a. Priority Private: 1.30% p.a. |
Important notes โ
- Hold till maturity: Promotional rates typically assume funds remain placed until the end of 9 months โณ
- Early withdrawal risk: Breaking the placement early can lead to reduced or even zero interest, depending on policy and T&Cs โ ๏ธ
- Segment tier matters: Rates differ by banking segment, so confirm the tier and the rate displayed at confirmation ๐น
What counts as “Fresh Funds”? ๐ค
For this campaign, Fresh Funds are funds that do not originate from any existing Standard Chartered account and are not funds withdrawn and re-deposited within the last 30 days before opening the Time Deposit โ
In practical terms, qualifying inflows are usually transfers coming in from outside Standard Chartered (for example, another local bank) ๐. Where fund movements are messy (multiple hops, recent withdrawals, transfers between Standard Chartered accounts), sticking closely to the T&Cs helps avoid losing promotional treatment โ ๏ธ
How to place the deposit digitally ๐ฑ๐ป
After Fresh Funds are credited into an eligible Standard Chartered deposit account, complete placement via digital channels. Before confirming, double-check the tenor, amount, and the rate shown on-screen โ ๐
Via SC Mobile ๐
- Log in to SC Mobile.
- Tap Discover (bottom navigation).
- Select Deposits > Time Deposit.
- Choose Singapore Dollar Time Deposit.
- Follow the in-app steps to submit the placement โ
Via Online Banking ๐
- Log in and select Apply from the top menu.
- Complete required authentication ๐
- Select the preferred Time Deposit account.
- Enter placement details and submit โ
Note: Menu labels and screen flow can change with app/web updates and account profiles ๐
