Does the CPF Special Account Closure Affect Only CPF-Rich Members? (S4E4)

Providend's Money Wisdom

As the leading fee-only wealth advisory firm in Asia, Providend has consistently guided clients on incorporating CPF into their comprehensive wealth plans.

In this week’s Money Wisdom episode, our co-host Isaac talks to our CEO, Christopher about the CPF Special Account closure on 19 January 2025, which had an impact on approximately 1.4 million CPF members. Chris highlights the importance of first having clarity on your original intention for your CPF funds, before purchasing financial products solely to grow your CPF funds at a higher interest rate, without first considering your life goals.

You can read Chris’s article in The Business Times on this topic here.

Stay tuned for our next episode, where we kick off our mini-series, "Milestones by Decade"!
