Actually, for saving account it's ok to put in there for a short duration... if put it there for long term.... it cannot fight the inflation now... recently the inflation in s'pore is ard 5~6%

Unless for emergency if not I would rather use the excess cash to invest... my personal opinion. :)
 

Mmmm ocbc gives you 1 percent regardless of amount in bank while Citibank needs you to step up and maintain a high amount of cash in the account to enjoy 1.5 percent.. Don't seem too attractive to me.

Irregardless, savings account is always "losing" money. Unless you join as CitiGold or Citi Private Banking (this one IRAS sure check) and they help you invest.
 

whatever savings interest one receives is subject to income tax. how's that!
