Hello to all the sifu out there. Im a first timer and i want to start investing in PB Mutual funds. I'd do some research but I do have a few questions.
1)The service charge is 5.5% of NAV for equity fund.
Does this means I have to pay 5.5% everytime i invest more money?
2) The service charge for bond fund is 0.25%
What will happen if i invest in bond first. Then i decided to switch all of my investment to equity fund. Besides the switching fee, do i need to pay the 5.5% service charge for equity fund?
3)Is there any other fee such as annual fee involved?
4) Is there any additional charges when i redeem my investment?
5) Can i register Public Mutual account via pbebank? Or do i have to go to a Public Mutual branch to open an account.
Thanks!
1. YES including additional investment or also known as top up either manually or through DDI/SI.
2. Units in bond fund is called non-loaded units. Once switched to equity/balanced fund, you'll be charged for 5.5% as well.
3. Trust and management fee which are transparent to unitholder and deducted in their financial report before declaring distribution.
4. When you wanted to repurchase/sell/redeem, no extra involved; meaning no exit fee.
5. To register for PMO: refer to:
