I already said I don't do predictions. I buy when things are cheap and give chase when things are expensive.

I not am interested in a 1-2% dip. It's nothing.

Guys what do you think about kenanga growth PRS fund??? Or should I go for CIMB instead??

Depends on what you want. Kenanga focus on Malaysia only while Cimb is Asia Pacific. Majority being china, India and a little in between.

My kenanga existing PRS suffering like 10 percent loss at the moment

Feel like averaging it down but not sure to put in CIMB or kenanga this year

buy both dont keep all ur egg in 1 basket

Rhb falls like shit

I put CIMB AAXJ as hedge against Ringgit. If ringgit plunge 20% again in the future, the portfolio value goes up by 20% in our home currency term.

Conversely if Malaysia Ringgit becomes strong you lose money.

I have reverted to taking out everything under account B, taking a 8% hit, and moving on.

I take it as a discounted income tax savings. No headache of hoping, wishing, praying.

That unfortunately has to happen with the balance 70%. At least mitigate the risk.

Since you're impatient, you shouldn't have invested into PRS.

Most of us are contributing and let it auto-pilot till age 55.

Not impatient. Just don't believe that it works as it totally contradicts retirement principal - just take a look at EPF. With a minimum guaranteed of 2.5%, that is what retirement should be - safe and steady without the need for any fees. EPF manages billions of ringgit but does not charge us any investment fee and every year averages 5-6% returns!

The ONLY reason for investing is for Income Tax deduction. If this benefit does not exist, I will not have invested and maybe a few here will have second thoughts.

Try asking the PRS service providers to do it for free and only take a portion of the profits (if and when there are) and I think the majority will close shop.

I don't know which PRS fund that you invested and how long you have been invested.
If you want some thing like EPF, you should go for Conservative funds. They're mainly constituted of bond funds which entry service should be at 0%

The higher the risk-return ratio, the higher entry cost which is normally seen on Moderate and Aggressive funds.
PRS is using unit trusts model. So you need to expect it to behave like unit trusts.
But some PRS providers don't charge any entry cost at even for Moderate and Aggressive funds.

Well, it is just personal preference.
Nobody is right or wrong in investment.

i still yet to receive my RM1000 incentive bonus from PRS/PPA.

I bought in to the fund in December 2018 for RM1000.

Will receive in Q2 i think, based on the email reply by PPA.

The incentive is only disbursed twice a year.
I think the incentive won't be extended after 2018.

PPA website says otherwise, prs youth free 1k link is invalid and removed

Typo.
I corrected the post.

Hi all, I purchased RM1k of Kenanga PRS Growth Fund via PRS website just to get RM1k youth incentive from govt. However, Kenanga PRS Growth Fund NAV really drop like shit. I am thinking want to buy Affin-Hwang/M+ PRS fund via PRS website and failed. Should I go to their individual website to buy their PRS fund?

Appreciate someone can help.

I don't think you can buy from a fund from another new PRS provider from PRS website.
PRS website normally can be used to top up existing funds.

You need to create a profile with the PRS provider first since they don't have your details.
You need to submit forms.
