Prs is UT but unlike normal UT, this one need to hold until retirement.  PRS public mutual means the PRS is sold by public mutual lo. Avoid all public mutual funds.

So if i want to open PRS account, dont open it under Public Mutual?

All PRS funds are regulated by PPA.
You need to have an account with PPA first.
Normal PRS providers will help you to create one if you buy a PRS fund from them.
PRS is just like EPF but working mechanism is like UT.

If you want PRS, if you can open with any PRS provider.

there are only 8 of them anyway.

If you do get Public Mutual PRS, well, you will be charged 3% sales charge.

Whereas if you explore other options with other PRS providers, you may not need to pay that sales charge. Example will be opening account with Fundsupermart to buy PRS with the other 7 providers.

Long story short, if you buy from a sales person, likely you will need to pay sales charge.
