CPF Interest Rates from 1 July 2023 to 30 September 2023
CPF members below 55 years old
- Members earn an extra 1% interest on the first $60,000 of their combined CPF balances
CPF members aged 55 and above
- Members earn an extra 2% interest on the first $30,000 of their combined CPF balances, and an extra 1% on the next $30,000
HDB Concessionary Interest Rate from 1 July 2023 to 30 September 2023
- Remains unchanged at 2.6%
Note: All interest rates are quoted on a per annum basis.
With the Special and MediSave Account (SMA) pegged rate exceeding the floor rate of 4%, savings in the SMA will earn 4.01% in the third quarter of 2023. This is due to the increase in the 12-month average yield of 10-year Singapore Government Securities (10YSGS), which the SMA interest rate is pegged to.
The Ordinary Account (OA) interest rate will remain unchanged at 2.5% for the same period, as the pegged OA rate remains below the floor rate of 2.5%. The Government is watching the interest rate environment closely to ensure that the CPF interest rate pegs remain relevant in the prevailing operating environment while taking into consideration the longer-term outlook.
As part of the Government’s efforts to enhance the retirement savings for CPF members, CPF members will earn extra interest on their CPF savings. For members below 55 years old, they will earn extra 1% interest on the first $60,000 of their combined balances (capped at $20,000 for OA). For members aged 55 and above, the Government pays an extra 2% interest on the first $30,000 of their combined balances (capped at $20,000 for OA), and an extra 1% on the next $30,000.
The extra interest received on the OA will go into the member’s Special Account (SA) or Retirement Account (RA). If a member is above 55 years old and participates in the CPF LIFE scheme, the extra interest will still be earned on his or her combined balances, which includes the savings used for CPF LIFE.
