CPFB: Empowering Singaporeans with financial security

The Central Provident Fund Board (CPFB), established in 1955, is a key pillar in Singapore’s social security system. With over 4.2M members, it manages approximately $435B in assets, offering essential services that support retirement, healthcare, and homeownership. The CPF scheme ensures that Singaporeans and permanent residents save for their future, building a strong foundation for financial security.

Through the CPF system, members contribute a portion of their salary to various accounts for retirement, healthcare, and housing needs. This approach promotes long-term savings and guarantees that individuals are well-prepared for their post-retirement years.
