hi all,

when selecting the lowest cost for fund, and you are using dollar cost averaging, would you choose a fund with higher front load fees but lower total expense ratio or lower front load fees but higher total expense ratio?
*
In Malaysia, major of the fund's front load fee is fix, unless u go thru some offer over internet or FSM. So, u just need to look for total expense ratio. For me, the expense ratio is not a major concern, I will look at the fund perfomance itself, unless the total expense is very very high.

The problem is i dun think KLCI still have "energy" to go higher than 1700, unless our GE get settle. So, no point for me to wait.

From the sales talk, the understanding is that in  an adverse situation, I will still get back my capital. What is difference bewteen proctected & guaranteed?

Sure, I will be much wiser from this experience. The thing is that the bank recruited sales persons to mislead the customers, telling them that this fund's returns will be better than normal FD rates etc, etc. As usual, they are just sales talk and sounds very convincing, what more for the auntie & uncle not to fall into the trap.

I am having about the same experience with u. 4 years ago, i go AMBank renew my FD, the sales girl told me that the FD rate is low now and I should put my money to a capital guarantee fund that have bigger return than FD. At that time, I am totally dun know what is "mutual fund". I say yes and sign few documents for that. In later part I only find out it is "AmAsia RECOVERY Capital Guaranteed Fund", after 3 years of maturity, I earn nothing and gain back my capital last year. From this incident, I stop believe anything that the bank people say. Good thing should not come in sudden like that.

I am very new to unit trust and still learning. I am 21 and would like to start investing. I want to start buy units in Kenanga Syariah Growth Fund, Hwang AIIMAN Growth Fund and Hwang AIIMAN Income Plus Fund. Do you think it will be fine dear sifus.?
*
How u going to buy both of these funds, with the each fund house themselves? The fund u choose is recommended fund under FSM, plan to buy from FSM? The fund u choose is good by the fund itself. But as a investor itself, u should diversify ur portfolio, these 3 funds are concentrate on malaysia market. U should hv asia and global fund to balance up ur risk.

Yes i am planning to use FSM. Do you think it is a good idea. Okay which asia and global fund would you recommend me to look at. Anyway thanks for your advice. Really appreciate it!
*
Yes, FSM is a good platform with lower sales charge, 2% compare 5.5% to 6%. But the downside is, it is totally DIY, u need to know what u r doing. Since u r still young, u can start with small amount and learn along the way, experience is not something can be teach.

Regarding the asia and global, u can choose among the recommended fund in FSM, just make sure u read thru each prospectus and understand what ur fund going to invest.

Bro, not totally DIY lar, FSM's Customer Service is very helpful (available online, u get almost immediate response during office hours) and their Client Investment Specialists (contactable by phone and e-mail) are as good as, if not better than any mutual fund agents out there. wink.gif

Yes, agreed. Just i never contact them before.

Hi all, my public mutual agent has run away and now I can't get hold of him to withdraw my money. Is there any other ways I can do it without going through him? Please advise, thanks a lot.

If I am not mistaken, u can register PMO and repurchase online. For me, I never done any transaction under agent besides the very first one and only one.
