do u meant
1) invest in a fund that run and managed by a mutual fund company that registered outside Malaysia like franklin templeton or
2) invest in a local mutual fund company that have funds in foreign equity exposures?

the reinvest dividend need how long only they will send the slip to me??thank u to those who are willing to answer my question.

abt 1 month,...... if u hv online, u can c ur balance units in ur acc status.

ok.thank u very much
so if my dividend out on 30june, i should have receive the slip around next week?

For me I use the rate of 10 Yr MGS (Malaysian Govt Securities) which is currently about 3.9%. 20 Yr MGS ia about 4.2%.

You can get this data from your brokerage firm, under fixed Income category.

Its easy to change agent? How?
appreciate somebody can answer my question.

U can start new accounts with another agent
eg. if U already have PIX with Agent A,
now U open another PIX (different account number - dont worry, it'll be auto created) with Agent B.

However, if U are asking how to MOVE YOUR ENTIRE PORTFOLIO FROM Agent A to Agent B... not easy
You'll need 3 signoffs - U as the customer + your current Agent handling that portfolio + your new agent

Unless your current Agent loves U or is close to U, a bit.. colder than water chance... as yr current Agent gets "career benefit" from your equities and loaded funds held by U.

Hope the above clarifies more than

an investor can hv more than 1 agent. as he/she wish.

- open new acc with other agents.
- u can leave ur current acc with ur existing agent.

Thanks for the answer above. I'm more interested in the case where all my previous account from agent A to be appear on 'computer software' cams of Agent B, so that my current agent can print out analysis report. Its more convenient for me as previous agent has lost contact for around 3 years.

Can I just do something with only my new agent B as previous agent A already lost contact?

Public Growth Fund distribute dividend at 6 cents per unit.

Check ur fund value. it is the same Plus u got taxed.

Yeah...seems like we are cheating ourself

Too complicated..

Just cash out everything.. Then hamtam all in again, easier ma
Unless that 5.5% service charge is a big one, probably use sign sign lo..

How they count for dividend ....
is that you have to invest for that fund for at least a year ... that you entitle the dividend ....

How about if you invest yesterday and they announces the dividend today ... are you entitle for the dividend ...

how they count for the dividend ...
Is it base on your lowest unit trust end of the each months like how others PNB fund (e.g ASN/ASW) calculated ...
or a total of your unit trust the day before the announcement of the dividend ...

thank you for answering my question ...

Maybe searching and reading first would be good - simple search in this topic itself with the word "dividend" can find liao

Public Growth Fund seems performing very well for the last ten years.. but is it available for purchase now?

You cannot open the same fund with different agent.

Brother - either i'm in lala land (too much drinks and not enough coffee ) looking at my accounts now
OR ...

I have 2 agents for same fund, different account numbers now - staring at the Public Mutual Online NOW.

In addition, logic dictates that if a customer buys same fund from new Agent, new Agent gets commission, not old Agent.
OR
following your facts, CANNOT BUY. PUBLIC MUTUAL DOESNT WANT YOUR $?

Sigh.. i'm going back to women and wine.. more logical there..

@wongmungkeong
are you sure the same fund different agent is also a same type, not EPF and cash?

If both are cash type, how to register another account for the same fund?

u can buy the same fund via 10 agents park under 10 diferent accounts.
