Frequently asked questions
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.
â
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.
â
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.
â
Example of tax savings
The more you contribute to SRS, the more tax savings you can get. Hereâs an illustration of how much tax you can save as a Singapore citizen or PR:
â
- Annual income:Â S$100,000
- Personal reliefs (CPF, qualifying child, etc.):Â -S$36,000
- SRSÂ contribution:Â -S$15,300
- Chargeable income:Â S$51,300
- Taxes due with SRSÂ contribution:Â S$1,159
- (Taxes due if no SRSÂ contribution:Â S$2,230)
Annual tax potentially reduced by 48% with SRSÂ contribution

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.
â
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.
â
â
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.
â
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.
â
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 SRSÂ investment portfolio, equivalent to your fees due for the quarter.
It is much lower cost to buy, maintain, and grow your money with Endowus  than it would be to replicate them on a popular âlow cost, no feeâ 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.
â
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%.
â
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%.
1)Â Simply log in to your Endowus account,
2)Â Go to "Invest |Â Redeem"
3a) "Add new goal"Â and select "Invest my SRS", or
3b)Â select an existing goal, and "add my SRS to this goal".
â
If you do not see SRSÂ as an investment option, you need to link your SRSÂ account here.
You can open an SRSÂ account if you are:
- A Singaporean, Permanent Resident (PRs) or foreigner working in Singapore
- At least 18 years old
- Not an undischarged bankrupt
There are three SRS operators (UOB, DBS & OCBC). You can register for an SRS account with any of them on their online platforms. Â You can fund your SRSÂ account by internal bank transfer.
â
Once you have have your SRSÂ account number, you only have to link it to your Endowus account and start investing!
