Description

A race against time - and one that could save you real money.

As the year ends, many Singaporeans hurry to make their S$15,300 SRS contribution to cut their tax bill - but how does the scheme work 

We unpack withdrawal rules, explain whether you’ll eventually pay tax, and why 1 in 5 SRS dollars sits idle earning just 0.05% interest

Should you invest your SRS instead, and how do rising statutory retirement ages affect when you can access your money?

We break down the crucial 1 July 2026 deadline to lock in the penalty-free withdrawal age of 63.

Hosted by Michelle Martin with guest Elijah Lee, Senior Financial Services Manager, Phillip Securities.
