About SRS accounts
-
Yes, you can invest all the available funds in your SRS bank account. To check your SRS balance, log in to the mobile app or the website of the bank where you opened your SRS bank account. If you don't have an SRS bank account and would like to open one, please click here to learn more.
Please note that while there is a cap on the yearly contributions to your SRS bank account based on your Singapore residential status, you can still invest more than the annual contribution limit. For example, as a foreigner, the maximum contribution for 2024 is S$35,700. However, for example, if you or your employer have been contributing to your SRS bank account over the years and your balance is S$100,000, you can choose to invest the full S$100,000 in 2024, not just the S$35,700.
Keep in mind that funds in your SRS bank account only earn 0.05% p.a. if not invested. To explore ways to boost your retirement savings, click here to learn more about Syfe.
