KDI Save FAQ

KDI Save is an investment solution that invests in high quality Ringgit-based money market and/or fixed income financial instruments. Traditional bank savings products such as fixed deposits (FD) and Current Account and Savings Account (CASA) products are deposits placed with banks in return for interest. KDI Save derives returns from its underlying investments, while bank savings commit to returns at a given interest rate backed by returns on loans issued, fees collected, investments, and other income generating activities. 

Like traditional savings products, KDI Save offers a stated rate of return on your funds. In contrast with fixed deposits, KDI Save does not enforce any lock-ins on deposits, as funds may be withdrawn at any time. Plus, interest is accrued and credited on a daily basis, unlike FD's and CASA accounts that credit interest monthly or more. As an investment solution, KDI Save is not eligible for deposit insurance protection under Perbadanan Insurans Deposit Malaysia (PIDM). 

The p.a. figure is the interest rate obtained by annualising the daily return over a year. While returns are still compounded daily, the quoted rate itself does not include the compounding effect.

KDI Save deposits are compounded daily. In other words, your interest is added to your daily principal for future compounding at your eligible interest rate tier.

For example, Client A has deposited RM5,000 into KDI Save and KDI Invest, respectively. The Client holds investment for both accounts for 12 months. To calculate how much Client A earns:

When you invest with KDI Save, you benefit from daily compounding returns. In the illustration above, Client A earnsan additional RM3.80 when choosing to invest with KDI Save at Tier 1.

You earn a daily interest rate, which is based on per annum (p.a.) calculation and is reflected in the daily value gain of your KDI Save account.

There are no fees, charges or conversion costs when using KDI Save.

KDI Save is only a cash management account that enables you to earn returns above savings rate and thus, there is no option for changing of risk profile for your KDI Save account.

The interest received from KDI Save is fully exempted from personal income tax.

In general, an individual resident enjoys tax exemption on interests received from:
(1) Negotiable certificate of deposit [Income Tax (Exemption) (No. 7) Order 2008]
(2) Rediscounting of banker's acceptance on repurchase agreement or any similar instrument of trade financing which is traded in money market fund [Income Tax (Exemption)(No. 7) Order 2008]
(3) Money deposited in any savings deposit, current deposit, fixed deposit or investment deposit with licensed banks [Income Tax (Exemption) (No. 7)Order 2008]
(4) Debentures or sukuk, other than convertible loan stock, approved or authorized by, or lodged with, the Securities Commission [Para 35, Sch 6 of Income Tax Act 1967]

No, KDI Save is not PIDM insured. Nonetheless, we carefully protect your KDI Save deposits by investing in very low risk assets.
