Frequently asked questions

What is the Supplementary Retirement Scheme (SRS), and how much tax can I save?

SRS is a voluntary scheme to encourage individuals (Singapore citizens, PRs, and foreigners working in Singapore) to save for retirement with tax benefits and employer contributions. Invest your SRS with Endowus to generate potentially higher retirement savings.

‍

Dollar for dollar tax savings

For every dollar that you contribute, your taxable income is reduced, subject to the personal income tax relief cap of $80,000. The money contributed has restricted use and can mainly only be used for investment purposes.

‍

Annual contribution cap

There is an SRS annual contribution cap of $15,300 per annum for Singapore citizens and SPRs, and $35,700 for foreigners.

‍

Example of tax savings

The more you contribute to SRS, the more tax savings you can get. Here’s an illustration of how much tax you can save as a Singapore citizen or PR:

‍

  • Annual income: S$100,000
  • Personal reliefs (CPF, qualifying child, etc.): -S$36,000
  • SRS contribution: -S$15,300
  • Chargeable income: S$51,300
  • Taxes due with SRS contribution: S$1,159
  • (Taxes due if no SRS contribution: S$2,230)

Annual tax potentially reduced by 48% with SRS contribution

What are the underlying funds in the Endowus SRS investment portfolios?

For general investing, Endowus Flagship Portfolios are composed of global equities and fixed income funds managed by best-in-class fund managers such as PIMCO, Dimensional, and Amundi. For Cash Smart portfolios, please refer to the Cash Smart page here.

‍

Unlike other fund platforms, financial advisors, brokers, banks or distributors, Endowus accesses the institutional share-class of funds that have lower fees, never charges a sales fee, and rebates 100% of trailer fees so you keep more of your returns.

‍

To see more information on the exact portfolios at each level of risk, underlying holdings, historical returns, fees, and more, create your Endowus account for free.

‍

‍

How does Endowus make money? How is the Access Fee charged?

For general investing, Endowus charges an Access Fee of 0.40% per year, which includes portfolio advice & creation, unlimited transactions, all at your convenience on the Endowus platform.


For example, if your account has an average value of S$10,000, Endowus will transparently make S$40 per year from you.

‍

For Cash Smart, the Endowus Access Fee is 0.05% per year.


Endowus has no sales fees, and 100% trailer fee rebates. Unlike other platforms, we do not collect kickbacks from fund managers. We are only paid by you, the client we serve.

‍

Paying the Access Fee is seamless and transparent. We charge our Access Fee on a quarterly basis based on your daily average total assets under advice for that quarter. We will seamlessly redeem part of your SRS investment portfolio, equivalent to your fees due for the quarter.

What is the cost of Endowus versus popular fund platforms?

It is much lower cost to buy, maintain, and grow your money with Endowus  than it would be to replicate them on a popular “low cost, no fee” fund platform. Endowus also rebates 100% of trailer fees, and gives access to the institutional share class of funds, which typically are half the cost of a retail fund share class.

‍

For example, when you buy the PIMCO Income Fund at a private bank or broker, you may be sold the retail share class, which has a total expense ratio of 1.45%, plus any sales fees (typically 1-5%), plus any custodian fees (typically 0.20% to 0.50% per year). This means that you may have a total cost of ownership in the first year of over 3%.

‍

With Endowus, we access the institutional share class of the same fund, which has a total expense ratio of 0.55%, no sales fees, no transaction fees, and the Endowus Access Fee of 0.40% per year. This means you have a total cost of ownership of 0.95%.

  • At least 18 years old
