About this event
With rising prices and longer lifespans, many Singaporeans may be worried whether they can retire well. As the saying goes, if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. It never hurts to start early, and you can improve your chances of a good retirement with the Supplementary Retirement Scheme (SRS).
Set up in 2001 to supplement the CPF, the SRS is a voluntary scheme which offers attractive tax savings. But as of end 2021, there were less than 300,000 SRS accounts, and about a quarter of the SRS savings were held in cash, earning just 0.05% each year.
If you leave your SRS funds idling in your SRS account, they will only be gnawed away by the rising inflation (7.5% as of August 2022)
If you’re keen to find out how to save and grow your monies with SRS, tune in to our SRS webinar: How to save on taxes, multiply your savings and beat inflation!
