Dharmo Soejanto Profile Picture

Money market funds and very short-term bonds are currently providing some of the best interest rates we have experienced in quite some time. This is a significant turn from the near-zero rates seen since the great Financial Crisis. Investors now have a prime opportunity to move cash from low-yielding savings accounts into these options, which present the chance to earn potentially higher returns with very low risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is there a minimum investment amount for Cash+ Xtra?

    You can start earning more with your cash from just S$1.

  • How do I receive gains from Cash+ Xtra?

    Cash+ Xtra returns are accrued daily and automatically reflected in your portfolio net asset value (NAV). The NAV may increase or decrease as the value of the underlying funds increases or decreases, respectively.

  • When can I receive my cash after making a withdrawal from Cash+ Xtra?

    It takes up to 5 business days to receive your withdrawal proceeds in your bank account.

  • How does UOBAM compute the yield to maturity ("YTM") of the Cash+ Xtra Portfolio?

    The Cash+ Xtra Portfolio's YTM is presented based on the weighted average gross yield to maturity ("YTM") of the Portfolio's underlying funds, less the weighted average Total Expense Ratio ("TER") of the underlying funds, and less the 0.05% p.a. UOBAM Invest Advisory Fee.

    The YTM It is presented in SGD terms and may be affected by the undertaking of discretionary portfolio management strategies such as currency hedging.

  • What is the difference between yield and returns?

    Yield typically refers to the income generated by an investment, such as interest or dividends, expressed as a percentage of the investment's value. It focuses on the income aspect of the investment based on certain assumptions or projections, such as the stated interest rate or dividend yield and it represents the theoretical yield that an investment is expected to generate.

    Returns, on the other hand, encompass both income (yield) and capital appreciation or depreciation of the investment over a specific period. It represents the real income or return realized by an investor over a specific period. Actual returns may differ from expected gross yield due to various factors such as changes in market conditions, fluctuations in interest rates, hedging strategies, unexpected market events, and any other costs and it may be higher or lower than the expected yield as it reflects the actual performance of the investment.

    For example, if you have invested $1,000 in a bond with a 5% annual interest rate, the yield on the bond is 5% because that's the interest rate promised by the bond issuer. However, if the value of the bond increases over time and you sell it for $1,060, your actual return includes both the interest you earned (yield) plus the capital gain from the increased value of the bond. So, while the yield remains at 5%, your actual return of the capital gain would be $60 ($1,060 - $1,000).

  • What fees do I pay?

    There is no platform charges and withdrawal fees. However, there is an advisory fee of 0.05% p.a. and charged quarterly. Assuming the amount you invested is $10,000 for the whole year, your fees will be approximately S$5.
