CPF Amendment No. 2 Regulations 2026 - Investment Scheme Proceeds
Summary
The Ministry of Manpower, Singapore has amended Regulation 14 of the Central Provident Fund Regulations 1987 to insert a new provision (1)(da) and (2)(da) addressing amounts credited to members' ordinary accounts under the CPF Investment Schemes Regulations 2000. The amendment applies retroactively and prospectively to proceeds of sale of designated shares sold before, on, or after 8 April 2026. The changes clarify the timing of when restored amounts related to designated shares become recoverable.
What changed
The amendment inserts new sub-paragraph (da) into regulation 14(1) and regulation 14(2) of the CPF Regulations 1987. New provision (1)(da) establishes that amounts credited to a member's ordinary account under regulation 35(2) of the CPF (Investment Schemes) Regulations 2000, representing proceeds from sale of designated shares, are subject to the regulation. New provision (2)(da) specifies that amounts mentioned in paragraph (1)(da) or restored amounts related to those amounts are recoverable at any time.
The changes affect CPF members who participate in the CPF Investment Schemes and hold designated shares. Fund managers and the CPF Board must ensure account systems correctly apply these new provisions, including retroactively for existing transactions. Legal and compliance teams should review account maintenance procedures to incorporate the unlimited recovery timeframe for restored amounts.
What to do next
- Review member account records for designated share proceeds
- Update compliance procedures for CPF Investment Scheme account treatment
- Assess retroactivity implications for pre-8 April 2026 share sales
