Fixed Deposit Placement
Learn how you can make DBS Fixed Deposit Placements via digibank.
Important information
- DBS Fixed Deposit allows you to place both SGD and Foreign currency within the same account.
- The minimum placement amount and period are:
- For SGD Fixed Deposit, the minimum amount is S$1,000, with a choice of tenors from 1 month onwards.
- For Foreign Currency Fixed Deposit, the minimum amount is S$5,000 equivalent, with a choice of tenors from 1 day onwards.
- For Premier Income Accounts, the minimum amount is S$10,000, with a choice of tenors from 6 months onwards.
- Upon maturity, the Fixed Deposit placement (including interest) will be renewed automatically based on the same tenor at the prevailing interest rate, unless you provide us with other instructions at least 1 working day before the maturity via digibank.
- SGD Fixed Deposit interest rates for new placements and renewals will be computed based on the Total SGD Fixed Deposit Balances, instead of each placement and/or renewal.
Examples

My Fixed Deposit account has 2 placements which sum up to S$100,000 (S$30,000 + S$70,000). What is the applicable interest rate for each renewal?
