How are CPF interest rates determined?

Savings in the Ordinary Account earn the 3-month average of major local banks’ interest rates, subject to the legislated minimum interest of 2.5% per annum. This is reviewed quarterly.

Savings in the Special, MediSave, and Retirement Accounts (SMRA) earn the 12-month average yield of 10-year Singapore Government Securities (10YSGS) plus 1%, subject to the current floor interest rate of 4% per annum. This is reviewed quarterly.

Please refer to the CPF interest rates and MOF website for more information.
