hi all,

can adv which PB/Public that invest the funds in Asian countries and not Msia?

No, am not an agent. Heard from a friend of mine saying his agent told him Public SmallCap is re-opened since 18-April-2011. Surprisingly, when I check Public Mutual's website there are no such announcement. Makes me wondering whether the news is real or not. I suppose I should make a call to Public Mutual to clarify.

My agent told me, Public Small Cap is open for investor on 18 April 2011.

Invested PSCF on 18th.

I have submitted few investments for my investors and I can verify you that SmallCap fund is indeed reopen for investment, though I'm not sure for how long.

Thanks. Clarified through Public Mutual that it is indeed open. Thought want to do switching, but seems not allowed. Have to fork out some money for it.

Yeah it sucks when you cannot switch over it. So i have no choice but to sell my current holding and buy back smallcap with 4% charge through my agent. But it really worth it (if you compared to past performance). Let me summarize some of the popular funds with 5 years holding.

1. Smallcap - 183%
2. Public Regular Saving Fund- 90.7%
3. Public Saving Fund - 91.99%
4. Public Equity Fund - 96.45%


Alternatively: AMB Value Trust Fund 196% ---> From Amanah Mutual Berhad
Currently there is 3% fee charge for this fund.

Yep... Public SMALLCAP Fund is reopened for investment officially on 18th April onwards.

But it is only allowed for INITIAL & ADDITIONAL investment only.

Switching into the fund is not allowed.

Guys, i need some help with performance chart. Public Regular Saving Fund 10 years performance 252%. Does it mean that if i invest 100k 10 years ago, my holding worth 352k now? I was surprised when i see my sister holding since 1996 in that fund, simple estimate return around 100% only.

May I know, how you calculate your returns?

u still need count minus the sales charge.

is it she invest lump sum or DCA?

any idea how can i open an account with PM without going through an agent? currently am a jointholder only.

All the charges very high la for all local unit tust.

Oh no~i check the statements and it was DCA. No wonder the return only 100+%. Sorry my mistake . So if lump sum, if 100k @ 5 years 100%, it is 200k right?

What is the current PB fund that recommended to invest?

PBIASS is not doing very well after I keep my money there for 2 years.

After doing some study, PBIB looks like a good find to switch to.

PCSF finally overshot 0.2000 again!

seem that all China fund has a same pattern now!
