Hi1307,

So you get the same rate as straight up buying SGD bonds, but instead with a 55yr-lifetime lock in period

trewq,

From what i know cpf interest is compounded while ssb is simple one (i forgot the actual term, rate * invested amt). By right compunded interest give better result than simple one for the same rate over time.

Source: cpf.gov.sg/…/how-is-my-cpf-interest-computed-and-… -> first paragrah: compounded annually.

Using this calc www.investor.gov/…/compound-interest-calculator$1000 with 4% compounded interest gives you $3,243.40 1,000 with simple 4% rate gives you $2,200
