yea i know public bank is the best out there..
but cimb is having this package with FD+UT..
we don't have to top up anything but fixed amount in FD and fixed in UT..
end of the day we just get the returns..
so i wanna know let's say 20k in UT.. so the returns still depends on market performance.. then can i say if i put 20k in UT.. i will definitely get back 20k + x% returns?

Hello dude, if you are not planning to do anything with the money or at least have some discipline not spend it away, you can put it in unit trust. Unit trust return is much hogher than FD for sure. Well, off course if you can take higher risk invest in stocks.

i thought i heard unit trust also can be negative in returns?
if i invest 10k in UT.. will i get 10k+% after a year?
im not really sure how unit trust works..

i know la fd thread..
but there is this FD+UT offered by CIMB now..
so thinking if purely put on FD or try to invest in FD+UT..
if the market is not good.. and after a year, the return is less than FD.. then better not la..
