Latest FD Rate Adjustments Reflect Economic Shifts and Digital Banking Trends
Update 19 Aug: SingFinance Cuts FD Rates to Max 1.55% p.a. from 19 Aug 2025
Effective 5 Aug 2025, SingFinance (Sing Investments & Finance Limited) has adjusted its Singapore Dollar Fixed Deposit (FD) interest rates. The revision reduces the previous ceiling rate of 1.65% p.a. – last announced on 15 July 2025 – to a new maximum of 1.6% p.a., in line with broader industry recalibrations.
Updated Online Fixed Deposit Tiers
Customers placing online fixed deposits now have access to a restructured interest rate system designed to accommodate a wider range of depositors. Rates vary by tenor and deposit amount, with the new brackets outlined below:
| Tenor | Minimum Deposit Amount | |
|---|---|---|
| $1,000 | $10,000 | |
| 3 months | 1.55% p.a. | 1.60% p.a. |
| 6 months | 1.50% p.a. | 1.55% p.a. |
| 12 months | 1.35% p.a. | 1.40% p.a. |
