I have a question regarding sales charge. I've read the FSM information, but knowing me, I might get the wrong idea, lol.

Do help me to understand here. It says now that there are no more sales charge, but there's platform fees.
Let's say I buy 1 fund with RM10k investment. How much do I get deducted from FSM? Is it according to whatever platform fee that is tied to that particular fund as shown in the site?
If yes, anything else on top of that that will be deducted from me?

So, if the price increases by 5%...so my profit = 5%-platform fees?

What is the difference between this and buying from the bank in terms of charges? I see that most bank charges about 4-5%. So meaning my price has to increase more than 4-5% before I can make a profit, yes?

Thanks!

Have you read all the FAQs on this matter?

Yeah, I did earlier. And it seems like the fee is not high at all and I'm concerned if I've actually missed out on something.

A forumer did some analysis and comparison on this matter. In long term, the platform fee will be relatively significant.

All fees will be mentioned upfront in the respective fund info page. No hidden fee or charges otherwise stated.

hi, would like to know which fund did you guys invest with your EPF withdrawal ? which is the fund that's still worth to invest for EPF fund?
what are the FSM fund that offer overseas exposure apart from OSK Kid Save Trust, OSK-UOB Emerging Opportunity Unit Trust  , Hwang Select Opportunity, AMB dividend trust ?
anyone did fund switching for EPF fund with FSM before ?

Need your guys opinion, I'm planning to invest in a Bond fund, this is my first time investing in a bond fund. I have short listed the fund: RHB Islamic Bond or AmDynamic Bond. It is a long term investment probably 5 years.
Any comments?

Not advisable to start investing in bond fund now...interest rates (esp Malaysia) only has one way - UP.

Park in Cash Management Fund and/or short-dated bond funds like AmIncome Plus to protect your capital for now.

Just my 2 sen

My Hwang PRS Moderate Fund is finalized.

From the datasheet, it is investing in several Hwang funds:

Holdings as at 30 September 2013

Hwang Select Dividend Fund | 29.5%
Hwang Select Balanced Fund | 30.0%
Hwang Select Bond Fund | 39.8%

Guess I need to invest into any Hwang funds anymore.

latest holding of Hw PRS Moderate as at 31 Oct 13
added in Hw Sel Asia Oppor
you are right...1 fund = 4 funds

You also invested in this PRS fund?
