Anybody wants to top up for AmAsia Pacific REITs?

I want.. but not big amount la, coz not enough $$

How about you?

The Sort button in the Fund Selector table sometimes work, and sometime simply refreshes the table and does NO sorting at all?

anybody know which unit trust fund has the largest "fund-size" ??

Didn't check one by one.. Why you need to know?

want to know... check one by one ? OMG.. okie

ya.. need to check 1 by one

Got ammo but topping up on it would make my portfolio's Asia REIT exposure too high. U wanna top up?

How already how many % of your portfolio?

5.5%. Then I also holding 17% in Hwang Select Income which also have a bit exposure to REITs.

If u look at it relative to my equity exposure (30%)...

6% / 30% = 20%

Any recommended fund for FSM singapore?

they should have some recomendation funds for 2012. Same as Fundsupermart MY has....

Hi Guys, I'm new to Fundsupermart ( just open an account) and was reading the FAQ on registration of units pertaining to cash investment. It is mentioned that units are registered to iFast Nominees Sdn Bhd and NOT to the investor's name. My question is how are the true Unit owners protected in event iFast Nominees Sdn Bhd goes kaput? Does the Fund in which we invested in, have us as owners in their books and iNSB as trustee or are we at the mercy of the company? They are so many investment frauds nowadays ie Wine, Gold, Land etc etc, one cannot be overly complacent especially when we are talking about investing our hard earned money..
The Gurus care to comment? Thanks.

A Nominee company is not supposed to do anything other than to hold investors' monies in trust.

And FSM is registered with SC.

I did a transfer in... Pass the documents on 22 sep, till now not yet reflected...

Knowing a company is not suppose to do anything other than holding monies in trust will not give an investor any comfort in event of a fraud. Question is what happens if somebody in the Nominee Sdn Bhd runs off with our money and goes bankrupt. If the Funds is not registered in our name, do we have recourse to claim against the Fund ? Are our rights limited in any way as "Unit" holders under the Nominee system as compared to a Unit holder registered directly with the Funds? Registration with SC merely means that it is not any random guy who happens to have some investment savvy who set up shop distributing unit trust funds but it has satisfied and complied with conditions set out by SC. SC is not going to provide any guarantee to the investors.

FYI, even my UT holdings with EON/HLB is registered under a nominee account...

I agree. I have a combination as well. Some direct and thru trustee companies. The thing is, some of these are fully backed by major banks like hsbc, CIMB , HL etc. The prospectus from iFast says that they have 2 corporate shareholders in Osk and Deutche bank but I notice they did not mention how much is their share holdings ...is it major or token? I will need to find out more before committing. Thanks anyway. End of the day it's caveat emptor.

iFAST Corp has two corporate shareholders. They are SPH AsiaOne Ltd, the Internet arm of Singapore Press Holdings, Singapore's largest media group, and DMG & Partners Securities Pte Ltd (51% owned by OSK Investment Bank Berhad and 49% owned by Deutsche Bank). In recent years, iFAST Corp has been expanding beyond local shores. In 2007, iFAST Corp launched its first overseas business, Fundsupermart in Hong Kong and in 2008, it launched Fundsupermart in Malaysia. Also in 2008, iFAST Corp entered into a joint venture agreement with Deutsche Bank's asset management division to expand its unit trust distribution business in India in the first half of 2009.
