Retirement Planning

Plan for the retirement you deserve, whether in Singapore, your home country, or somewhere new. As an expat, you face unique challenges: no CPF contributions, multiple currencies, and uncertain final destination. We help you build a retirement strategy that works.

Retirement Planning for Expats

Unlike locals who benefit from CPF contributions, expats must build retirement savings independently. This is both a challenge and an opportunity as you have flexibility to invest across markets and jurisdictions, but you also bear full responsibility for your retirement funding.

Key Expat Retirement Considerations:

  • Where will you retire? Singapore, home country, or third country affects your planning.
  • Currency strategy: Build assets in SGD, USD, or diversified currencies?
  • Healthcare in retirement: Plan for medical costs wherever you settle.
  • Tax implications: Different jurisdictions tax retirement income differently.

💡 Singapore Advantage

Singapore has no capital gains tax and generally no tax on investment income. Building retirement savings here can be highly tax-efficient, a significant advantage over many other global financial centers.

Pro Tips for Expats

Start Early, Even Small Amounts

Compound growth over 20-30 years is powerful. Even SGD 500/month starting at 35 can build a substantial retirement fund.

Don't Rely on Home Country Pension Alone

Years abroad may mean gaps in home country pension contributions. Supplement with personal savings in Singapore.

Consider Annuity for Income Certainty

Retirement annuities guarantee income for life. Particularly valuable if you're unsure about longevity or investment management.

Plan for Healthcare Costs

Medical expenses are the biggest unknown in retirement. Consider long-term care insurance and health insurance that's portable globally.
