i think you may have missed the word from his post..."no notice"

Maybe the announcement is tomorrow ?
Anyway, the February 2022 caruman be seen now under withdrawal eligibility. Strangely, the January 2022 caruman is not.

The former who keep saying it’s out this weekend should be suspended. Spreading misinformation.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Employees Provident Fund (EPF) has loaned RM25.29 billion to government-onwed construction firm Pembinaan PFI Sdn Bhd, with the loan is guaranteed by revenue from leasebacks from the Malaysian government.

Prime Minister cum Finance Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Razak added the EPF has also invested RM200 million in debt-ridden 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB), in a written parliamentary reply yesterday.

These two transactions are among EPF’s total portfolio exposure in government-linked companies (GLCs) totalling RM79.99 billion as of March 31 this year.
He said EPF’s financing exposure in GLCs was in the form of fixed-rate loans and bonds or sukuk subscriptions were part of it, based on government guarantee, asset mortgage and bank guarantee.

Pembinaan PFI Sdn Bhd has racked up debts of up to RM26.6 billion in just seven years since its inception.

The Finance Ministry Incorporated-owned “special purpose vehicle” set up on Sept 28, 2006, the company was aimed at acquiring capital to fund development projects and programmes identified by the government.

According to the auditor-general’s report in 2013 (Series 3), Pembinaan PFI had the third highest liabilities among all government-owned entities at the end of 2012.
On overall EPF’s investment in GLCs, Mohd Najib said the investments were aimed to provide stable and consistent returns in the long term.

More than 50% of the investments were in fixed-income instruments, which encompassed Malaysian government securities, level coupon bonds as well as loans and bonds for domestic and global mandates.

As such, he said EPF’s investment returns naturally would be influenced by interest rates movement and inflation.

“Since inflation rates have increased since 2009, EPF will continue to invest and diversify its investments in equity asset class and inflation comprising real estate and infrastructure in line with its strategic asset allocation in order to generate an optimal investment returns at an appropriate risk,” he added.

is this every year thing?

For 2 sure can even one or two more also can.

But 5m in EPF is not an easy figure to attain.

Your self contribution is for 2023 onwards though, the dividends paid out in March is for last year 2022. 2023 could be a bumper year, who knows...?

Says the huge net worth person. 

You only use these 3 options?

Don't do the monthly withdrawal option.... i remember (this is a while back) a old colleague who retired complained to us youngster that he choose the monthly withdrawal option to only find out that the entire amount earmarked for the monthly withdrawal for that year no longer earn interest.

best you go verify this first before selecting monthly withdrawal if this is still the case.
(I didn't verify this of cos... how to when I am not even at 55 years old).

Can also use Bank to directly bank in. Can select EPF. Last time don't have app to contribute. But now, better use app, maybe reflected faster than Bank transfer.

So how many digits actually then??
Your opinion 😁

Then shouldn't black out the numbers 😜😁😃😏
