The importance of Basic Savings

Basic Savings is a pre-determined amount set according to age in Account 1 to enable members achieve a minimum savings of RM240,000 when they reach age 55. The implementation of the Basic Savings is to ensure that members have sufficient savings at a minimum amount of RM1,000 per month when they retire in order to support their basic retirement needs for 20 years from age 55 to 75, in line with Malaysians' life expectancy. 

 

The amount in excess of the Basic Savings can be invested in appointed Fund Management Institutions. The latest revision in this quantum has been implemented starting 1 January 2019.
