Transferring from OA to SA in CPF

[Ray168]

Hi gzbkel,

Thanks for the update.

I am surprise with CPF's reply that SA cannot be use to invest in STI-ETF.

Hello Ray168, angtc11

I also emailed CPF, and they have replied to confirm that you cannot buy any ETFs with SA.

Click the link and you will able to see the type of ETF you can invest with SA.

1. SPDR STI ETF
2. ABF Singapore Bond Index Funds

Please click here for more details on the instruments included under CPFIS.

Please refer to the risk classification tables for unit trusts, investment-linked insurance products and exchange traded funds which Special Account savings can be invested in.

Anyway, let see what CPF reply.

SA can be use to invest in STI-ETF only.

Hi, you can invest, but it does not include sti etf. The products available for investment from SA are different from OA. What I gather is the SA investments are via a tie up with individual investment firms.

Will try to clarify with CPF and let you know

Yes, I saw the file before, but when I enquired on what the etf are, they said there is no etf. Am clarifying via email
