frens,im thinking for epf scheme public mutual..any idea which islamicĀ funds i cn invest?for long term..thought retirement scheme but currently not allowed for epf is this true?
First, to get an idea what funds are EPF approved, take a look into the Public Mutual website... look into the fund prices, select "EPF" to narrow down the long list of funds... then look into the performance chart for that fund....
Anyway, the top 3 EPF-approved funds in Public Mutual in 2012:
1) Public Islamic Select Enterprises Fund (17.6%)
2) Public Focus Select Fund (16.7%)
3) Public Islamic Dividend Fund (16.5%)
(with corrections: Public Focus Select Fund is number 2... and pushes Public Islamic Equity Fund to 4th place.)
The top 3 local PM funds in 2012:
1) Public Islamic Select Enterprises Fund (17.6%)
2) Public Islamic Opportunities Fund (16.7%)
3) Public Focus Select Fund (16.7%)
The top 3 foreign PM funds in 2012:
1) Public Far-East Property & Resorts Fund (27.4%)
2) Public Singapore Equity Fund (19.3%)
3) Public South-East Asia Select Fund (16.6%)
All of them were above 15% for the year; with PFEPRF above 25%.
Now the big question: which fund will best perform in 2013?
