EPF’s dividend is going to be quite a wow it seems

This piece of news did not come from me. The prediction must come from some analyst with lots of data which he / she could refer to in order to make such a prediction. I do not have such resources. How high is high and what is considered a wow? Well, FD rates are probably 3.5 percent. The potential EPF dividend rate is forecasted to be over 75 percent higher! That’s definitely a wow and worthy of a celebration, right? We cannot take out the money before we retire but it’s still our money. The more the merrier.

Experts: EPF dividend expected to be 6 percent for 2024

Even if the dividend percentage is the same as last year, it is close to double the fixed deposit rate. Thus, the chance is there for it to be higher than double? 🙂 It does seem to be so based on the reports after the announcement of the Q3 results for EPF. Another two positive projections and reasons are reported in NST. Both said that the rate would be between 5.7 to 6 percent. I would like to wish they are right and if possible for them to be wrong; their forecasts are lower than actual. 🙂 Read what they say below.

EPF News: Aim to save RM1 million by 60 years old

Well, if we did not withdraw any amount and we continue to save from the day we started working at 25 until the day we retire at 60, chances are the amount will be substantial. The reason is simple, if we are working, we save 11 percent of our pay while our employer will put in 12 percent. In other words, at minimum, we have a total of 23 percent of the salary being saved every month for 35 years. Just the savings alone?
