New tier, higher bundle

Standard Chartered's FD Promo Gets a New 3.90% Tier, CASA Bundle Rises to 4.85%

Standard Chartered has reshaped its fixed deposit promotion. A new top tier now pays 3.90% p.a., and the CASA-FD bundle — split 80:20 with a current account — has risen to a single flat 4.85% p.a. Both campaigns run to 31 December 2026.

Shared 0–5% scale across both groups. The plain FD now has three tiers instead of two; the CASA bundle drops from three tiers to one flat rate, slightly higher than before.
  • Birthday Month Privilege is new — your account anniversary month alone now qualifies for the middle tier.
  • Minimum placement stays at RM50,000 across all three tiers, in fresh funds only.
  • Maximum placement is RM1,500,000 for the top tier, RM1,000,000 for the other two.

The CASA bundle: one flat rate now, not three

  • The old three-tier structure disappears — every eligible client now gets the same rate.
  • Minimum placement doubles to RM100,000, split 80:20 between the deposit and a current account.
  • Eligibility needs New-to-Priority status or a fresh RM200,000 wealth purchase — unchanged from before.

The previous write-up on this promo, published 15 August, is now out of date — it quoted the 3.60%/3.75% two-tier plain FD and a 4.50%/4.80% bundle, both said to end 30 September. See Standard Chartered’s full FD rate table for the current figures, or check where they land in our FD Rate Index.
