A savings account designed for the younger generation
The OCBC Young Savers Account is catered specifically towards the younger generation. With a maximum age of 17 years old, this account is designed to inculcate a good savings habit at a young age among school children and teenagers. It does so by offering an interest rate of 1.85% p.a. for amounts of up to RM50,000.
In addition to that, 5% bonus interest on top of interest earned for the year will be rewarded if no withdrawals are made during the year! If that isn't reason enough to get you to save, we don't know what is!
