Overview

Interest on your CPF savings

To help boost retirement savings, the Government pays extra interest on the first $60,000 of your combined balances, which is capped at $20,000 for Ordinary Account (OA). 

The extra interest earned on your OA savings will go into your Special Account (SA) or Retirement Account (RA) to enhance your retirement savings. 

If you’re participating in the CPF LIFE scheme, you will still earn the extra interest on your combined CPF balances, including savings used for CPF LIFE.

How are CPF savings invested?

Your CPF savings are invested in Special Singapore Government Securities (SSGS) which are guaranteed by the Government. SSGS are non-tradable bonds issued specifically to the CPF Board for the investment of CPF savings.

This ensures that CPF savings are safe, regardless of financial market conditions, and ensures that CPF Board will be able to pay the respective interest rates to you.
