You mean you bought PBIB and PBF when they were launched on 2001 and 1996 respectively?
From my calculation based on the data obtained from PM, the annualized returns of:
PBIF (10 years, total return of 88%) is 6.3% and
PBF (15 years, total returns of 251%) is 7.9%

Can somebody verify if my calculation is correct.

I got the numbers from PM own website, there are two islamic bond funds namely PIBF and PBIBF.

The one that you bought is probably PBIBF which was launched in 2006 and its performance:
Annualized return for PBIBF (5/4/2006 to 12/8/2011 , total returns 42%) is 6.77% but then your return is higher because you bought it on a good year, 2009 ( a year where equities gives a good double digits returns)

I have just got the numbers for ASW2020 and ASM and their peformance is quite good until lately.

Annualized return for ASW2020 (14 years , total returns 179%) is 8.2% and

Annualized return for ASM (11 years , total returns 108%) is 6.89%
