Introducing StashAway Simple™ Guaranteed

With interest rates at decade highs and volatile markets, some of us just need the added comfort of a guaranteed return. That’s now possible with StashAway Simple™ Guaranteed. 

The best part? The rate you see is the rate you get – no hidden asterisks, no extra conditions.

We review Simple Guaranteed’s rates daily and update them when needed to give you the best returns possible. All you need to do is check the rate in the app, and lock it in when you’re ready. You’re now set to earn a guaranteed rate on your cash for the duration of your choice of tenor from options that vary from 1 to 12 months. It’s a reliable option for those who want a steady return on their investment. And who doesn’t want guaranteed returns.

How Simple Guaranteed works

1. Create a Simple Guaranteed™ portfolio in the StashAway App. (Download in the App Store or Google Play).
2. Transfer your funds into the portfolio. Whatever amount you choose, make sure you won’t need it for the duration of your choice of tenor as you won’t be able to withdraw it.
3. Check the prevailing rate and lock it in when you’re ready. It’s important to lock in your rate, otherwise your funds will not be earning any interest! 
4. Sit back and wait as your funds earn returns over the lock-in period. 
5. At the end of your tenor, collect your initial contribution and guaranteed returns! 
6. You can then decide to either create another Simple Guaranteed™ portfolio, reinvest your funds into another investment, or withdraw.

Simple Guaranteed might suit you if you are…

• Looking for a secure way to grow your cash at a guaranteed rate. It’s currently our lowest-risk cash management solution as your principal and interest amounts are guaranteed.
• Looking for certainty of exactly how much you’ll earn on your cash at the end of the lock-in period, no matter what’s happening in the markets.
• Saving for a specific short-term goal, such as a holiday, renovation, car, or deposit for a house.
• Diversifying your overall investments.

With Simple Guaranteed, you know what to expect, so you can plan ahead.

Simple Guaranteed vs Fixed Deposits

There are a few key differences between a classic fixed deposit account at a bank and Simple Guaranteed.

More ways to grow your cash with StashAway 

We have three ultra-low-risk cash management portfolios, each one designed to meet your specific needs. Regardless of which you choose, there’s no minimum balance, no cap on the balance that can earn returns, and no complicated terms or lengthy paperwork.

Here are the key differences between Simple™, Simple Plus™, and Simple Guaranteed™:

Which Simple portfolio is right for me?

Before deciding which one is right for you, ask yourself:

• How much risk are you willing to take on your cash? If the smallest bit of volatility causes you to lose sleep at night, you might want to consider our lowest-risk options, Simple or Simple Guaranteed. StashAway Simple has never had a day of negative returns since inception in November 2019. 
• How long can you afford to lock in your funds? If you need to withdraw your cash at a moment’s notice, such as for an emergency, Simple could be a suitable option for you. But if you don’t mind keeping your cash invested for 6 months, Simple Guaranteed™ will allow your cash to work harder with a guaranteed rate of return.

• How much volatility are you willing to accept? If you’re looking for a higher risk-reward portfolio to grow your cash and you’re prepared to accept potential, brief periods of slightly negative returns in the short term, Simple Plus might be a great option for you.

What’s the lock-in period for Simple Guaranteed?

You have the flexibility to select your choice of tenor from options of 1, 3, 6, or 12 months. During this period, your funds will be locked in, meaning you won’t be able to withdraw or add more funds into your portfolio during this time, though you can always create another Simple Guaranteed portfolio. There’s no limit to how many you create!

What are the fees for Simple Guaranteed?

There are no fees for Simple Guaranteed. However, we manage a small spread, which helps us stabilise the daily fluctuating rates and cover the costs of bringing the product to you.

This spread is the difference between the yield that we get from the bank and the one we deliver to you. It isn’t an additional fee to you, and you’ll still get the guaranteed rate. In other words, the rate you see is the rate you get!
