A large majority of Malaysians work in the private sector, where a penchant is not an option for a retirement plan, heck even if you are a civil servant, having a penchant may not be enough during your retirement days. This is why retirement plans like Maybank’s Smart Retirement Xtra.
Just what is it?
Smart Retirement Xtra is a retirement plan that pays you for a fixed 10 years after your retirement to cater to your retirement needs. At the same time, you get to enjoy the new tax relief of up to RM3,000 until year assessment of 2021.
Why do I need it?
Because your active lifestyle should not change just because your EPF is insufficient to support you. On average, contributors only have RM130,833 at the age of 55. With increasing life expectancy and medical cost, your EPF will not be able to support your golden years. * Source: EPF 2011 Annual report.
