Quick question. I noted recently that OSK-UOB GEM Bond Fund announced a dividend (ex-date 27th Feb, held them way before that). Till today I have yet to receive any crediting of additional units. Does it take a while for it to appear?

Same here. AmAsia Pac Reits are my first UT dividends, so seeing the email was a cherry popping moment for me. Hehe.

Haha yea I read thru a few pages back on how dividends are actually a 'taking from our left hand and giving us on our right hand' situation. Nonetheless, its nice seeing the value of my investments spike up after the drop during ex-date.

Hey, thats a good idea. Just recomputed my XIRR. Even before receiving back my OSK OUB EM Bond Fund dividends, it stands ta 9.45%... What took me so long to jump on the UT bandwagon lol. I've been contented with subpar FD rates for so long.

Haha, very humble investments la. most of them purchased during the FSM 0.5% promo, so the break even was much quicker.

AmBond ~18%
RHB Bond Fund ~11%
OSK-UOB Emerging Markets Bond ~17%
Hwang Select Balanced Fund ~10.5%
Aberdeen Islamic World Equity ~18%
AmAsia Pacific REITs ~14%
Hwang Asia Quantum Fund ~12%

approx at that range to date, based on current value. I do a monthly topup to whereever I see value and based on the recommendations of the sifus here.

Portfolio took a big hit today. From a XIRR high of +9%, its now dipped to around 4.75%, mainly due to big drops in my Aberdeen World Equity Shariah Fund and OSKUOB Emerging Markets Bond Fund.
