⚖️ Financial & Legal Disclaimer
Critical Notice: SGFinanceCalculators.com is classified as a “Your Money or Your Life” (YMYL) platform. Calculator results are educational estimates only — they are not financial advice, tax advice, legal advice, or a guarantee of any financial outcome. Always consult a MAS-licensed financial adviser, certified public accountant, or solicitor before making major financial decisions.
Contents
§1. No Financial, Tax, or Legal Advice
All content on SGFinanceCalculators.com — including calculators, guides, FAQs, examples, and educational articles — is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. Nothing on this Platform constitutes:
- Financial advice regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS)
- Tax advice from a Certified Public Accountant or IRAS-registered tax agent
- Legal advice from an advocate and solicitor
- CPF advisory services regulated by the CPF Board
- Property purchase, rental, or investment advice
- Insurance advice from a licensed insurance intermediary
SGFinanceCalculators.com does not hold any financial advisory licence issued by MAS, the CPF Board, or any other Singapore regulatory authority. Our tools are educational instruments, not regulated financial services.
§2. Calculator Accuracy and Limitations
We strive for the highest mathematical accuracy in all our tools, building directly from published regulations and official rate tables. However, users must understand the following inherent limitations:
- Simplified assumptions: Real-world financial outcomes depend on hundreds of variables our calculators cannot capture — lender-specific policies, individual credit assessments, CPF account history, and MAS case-by-case determinations
- Rate freshness: Singapore’s financial regulations change frequently. While we update our tools promptly, there may be a lag between a regulatory change and its reflection in our calculators. Always verify rates with the originating authority
- Rounding: Our results are rounded to two decimal places and may differ slightly from official calculations due to rounding methodology differences
- Edge cases: Certain personal circumstances (e.g., divorce, disability, bankruptcy, non-standard employment) may produce results not accurately modelled by our general-purpose tools
- Property market data: Any property valuation estimates are illustrative only and do not constitute a formal valuation. Always obtain an Independent Market Valuation from a licensed appraiser
Accuracy report: If you believe a calculator is producing incorrect results, please contact us immediately. Accuracy corrections are our highest editorial priority and are treated as urgent updates.
