It’s not another article, the same as the investpedia page. Check the source. Same reasoning as I mentioned before, a small mutual fund run by a single manager. EPF is a provident fund and passed this stage at inception.

Another article to explain the difficulties of large funds, especially an open ended one like EPF

depends on the size of the fund and the size of the market capitalization of the market that the fund invested in...
if the % of the money is too big for a particular market,...then it may be a problem for the true effective earning of the fund

Whether it is small, mid or large and its all relative, this statement still holds true:

Open-ended mutual funds have a great track record of expanding to mammoth sizes quickly as investors flock to these growing funds. But it is possible for funds to get too large and cause problems for fund managers and investors. In this article we'll show you how to handle the rapid growth of these funds and how to determine whether these funds are a good fit for your investing strategy.


That is the reason EPF had to venture overseas, no?

Venturing overseas is also because foreign investors pushed Malaysia since some time back to relax on govt ownership in Bursa. There is limited liquidity for them to be interested in the market.

Why compare mutual fund when provident is run by an investment committee or board?

KLSE total whole market cap is 1855 billion.

EPF fund size is around 1000 billion.


Let's just assume or imagine that EPF have a freely assign fund manager that can invest anyhow (which EPF is NOT)

If all of EPF fund is use to buy equity in KLSE, EPF have to own > 50% of everything, everything in KLSE. Good or rubbish counters, everything, 50%.

In this context,

a person with RM100,000 can buy topglove and sell at rm200,000 last year and make 100% profit, hence handsomely beat the institution return.

EPF can buy the entire topglove (a mere 21b relative to EPF size of 1000b, or 2.1% portfolio), and want to sell at double of the price there is no one to sell to.
EPF can also buy the entire maybank (market cap only 97b) , and want to sell double of the price there is no one to sell to.

and so on..

and if EPF own entire topglove and sell at double the price, it merely move the dividend by 0.x%, not even enough to start dreaming of double digit return.

But a person dream of 100% return or more!



It is only human nature for people to assume out performance relative to EPF, and keep demanding that EPF should get better return.

After all half of Malaysian had vested interest in EPF, and better performance of EPF is indeed a happier (half of) Malaysia indeed.

It all started during Najib premiership when foreign investors wanted less control on Bursa by SOEs for them to increase investments. He started to dismantle it but not fully. On EPFs independence from govt, I leave it unsaid.

EPF investment strategy via SAA


Equities,stocks/shares 42%
Fixed Income, bonds 46%
Money Market 7%
Infrastructure, properties 5%

About 30% of EPF investment overseas

So if EPF have fund around 1 trillion and 42% in equities in local stocks Bursa, with 30% overseas, this mean 70%x 42, around 30% of the fund play locally. About maybe 200~300 billion local bursa have EPF monies in it looking for yield and gain.

It has long been suggested that GLCs should give up some of their stakes in the local markets.

QUOTE
The government estimates that GLCs employ around 5% of the national workforce and account for approximately 36% and 54%, respectively, of the market capitalization of Bursa Malaysia and the benchmark Kuala Lumpur Composite Index.

At least 60% of the market is by controlled by them

A very simple example if EPF owns 7% direct interest in a company expect 35% is controlled by GLC

Are they GLCs? doh.gif Of course includes of all of them

As long as 1/3 is controlled by GLC and with the founder or owner holding 10% at least it is already controlled by GLCs and no way retail or private institutions can try to takeover

it is not about the control of companies,.. doh.gif
.i think what MUM referred is the control of BURSA in terms of market capitalisation....
how much $$ actually inside BURSA are theirs (them).
