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 In contrast with fixed deposits, KDI Save does not enforce any lock-ins on deposits, as funds may be withdrawn at any time.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 Effective Annual Rate is the interest actually earned on your investment as a result of compounding the interest and principal over time. A higher number of compounding periods results in higher EAR.

To compute the daily return rate on your KDI Save investment, you may use the following formula:

Daily Interest Amount=Value of investment × ((1+EAR)^(1⁄365)-1 )

Example 1: For RM10,000 deposited with KDI Save on day one

In Example 1, your savings of RM10,000.00 will compound to RM10,400.00 after one year of daily compounding, providing a return of 4%.

 

Example 2: For RM500,000 deposited with KDI Save on day one

In Example 2, your savings of RM500,000.00 will compound to RM516,227.60 after one year of daily compounding, providing a return of 3.25%.

You earn daily interest rate, which is based on effective annual rate (EAR) calculation and is reflected in the daily value gain of your KDI Save account.

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.
