Yes it does. For sure not all banks are affected equally and the correlation is not 1, but there is high correlation between the 2, MAS Economists have published several papers on this if you dun care to observe it yourself.
but where can we find a reliable source of current SORA rates ? cant seem to find any latest updated ones online, only like 1-2 months ago

I was on the 2.8% invite on ADB. I just received SMS to say now I qualified for 3.8% on ADB until 31 May 2023.

maybe too many people called to enquire so now they sms.

Maybe they will rollover 3.8% for subsequent months or even higher given current situation.

Anyway they can revised the rates via the invitation anytime they wish too

In the past, they ever extend the promo, so they might do it again after Feb, I hope so! Extend means continue to keep your money there for another 2 mths.

Was hoping invite get higher than published rate like before. But it is the same.

Means 20 Jan will not have exclusive bonus interest since the published bonus interest of 3.8% would have been paid on 31 Dec ?

In the past promos, those on exclusive invite scheme, the partial bonus int payment end of month + remainder bonus int payment by 20th of the following month remains until end of invite.:oops:

Hi, can any of you please advise if the 3.80% p. a. interest rate applies to new SC e-Saver account opening with funds transfer in of say $30K (ie much less than $2 million - because when I checked the site https://www.sc.com/sg/save/savings-accounts/esaver, the way it is described gives me the impression that the interest rate of 3.80% p.a. applies only on eligible deposit balance of exactly S$2 million, not up to S$2 million) ???

u still get 3.8% on $30k fresh funds since yours is new account so I reckon Nov ADB is $0. the website meant capped at $2M.

Thanks EveMuffins, jov1623 and iduncheckmail. Can any of you kindly advise if SC e-Saver is a good account to alternate / play musical chair with RHB High Yield Savings Account (for say $30K) month after month? I have transferred (and just left $0.01) funds out of my RHB HYSA and am looking for an account to park the $30K. Or which (hassle-free) account do you all recommend? UOB One? OCBC 360? Citi Plus Savings? SingLife? SIF GoSavers Account?
