Looking for the best fixed deposits in July 2020 in Singapore? There are varying fixed deposit promotions in terms of interest rates, tenure period offered by the banks in July 2020.
The 1 year interest rate for August 2020 Singapore Savings Bonds has fallen as low as 0.27%, thus any of the fixed deposits promotion below will beat the Singapore Savings Bonds.
I have shared many other financial instruments that is similar to what fixed deposits can offer. One good alternative is buying an endowment plan. The latest one is NTUC Income Gro Capital Ease which offers you a guaranteed return of 1.85% per annum over 2 years.
Endowment plans guarantee your capital upon maturity which is similar to what fixed deposits offer.
In May, I have signed up for a Singlife account, which is an insurance savings plan that offers you 2.5% p.a. for up to S$10,000. The interests paid in May and June was S$18.72 and S$20.29 respectively based on a deposit of S$10,000.
I have heard of Endowus Cash Smart and FSMOne’s Auto-Sweep account that offers higher interest rates but since I have not read them in detailed, I am not going to compare against them here.
