Why MP2 beats a time deposit here
MP2's dividend is tax-free. The same ₱10,000/month in a typical bank time deposit (taxed 20%) would earn only about ₱70,790 over 5 years — roughly ₱47,631 less than MP2's ₱118,421. The trade-off is lock-in: MP2 is a 5-year commitment, so it's for long-term, set-and-forget money — not your emergency fund. See the full MP2 vs time deposit comparison →
