Anyone here have any first hand information about when will the ASNB be rolling out their online portal out to the investors?

Just curious as I heard news that this online portal would be introduced in this month..

duit asb kah? Since Friday 2nd Jan can withdraw. Banks & Pos is so full like gomen giving away free money

That Friday I went, then I see line is already at the stair.

Then I thought, if they hav to line outside, inside must be packed.

Then I go to book update counter, at least want to see thousand ringgit in the book. Wow, maciam pesta wei. The got the number, 9204. I ask opiser, now what number? He said: 9088.

I leave coz I aint got time for that. But at least I can see how pack ASNB on its heyday.

116 people before your turn
they must do "extra work" now because when ASB suspended, all no job. goyang kaki & lepaking only

My reaction to the opiser:

Tak pe lar bang, saya datang minggu depan aje lar.

But, before I leave I take some brochure.

Just knew that we have ASB2

Also can see the NAV for ASN2.

lol ASB2 already out since April 2014 This March would know the 1st divvy & the performance

I dunno but I can feel ASB2 < ASB1 in term of return.

But, these fund is magic fund. They can manipulate so that ASB2 perform better than ASB1 to attract investor.

Depend on situation. If both account have same performance, might invest some in ASB2.

Or might also go into ASN2 to taste a bit capital appreciation.

Many plan, limited money, so thrilling

U need to read their fund fact sheet

Take RM500, u try any fund u like.

Then u can feel how is the process.

U control ur own investment. So, there is no agent fee, which make u get more gain.

Also, coz u control ur own investment, if u r not famliar with the market, u investment can dissapear just like that.

So, for newbie, take a portfolio take have more low risk fund, some medium risk, and little high risk fund.

When u already familiar, expose urself to higher risk portfolio.

P/S: I dont hav fund to recommend. Maybe u search for thread or any existing FSM forum that discuss these fund.

well if u ask me, I think better invest in Fixed price fund like ASB & ASB2. It's safe for current situation & also good for those with limited $$

Again its about diversification of investments. Ive got 40% of my funds invested in property, 30% in ASB (maxed), 10% in unit trusts and 20% left in EPF.

If ure thinking of going into unit trusts some of the better funds are Kenanga Growth Fund, Eastsprings Small Cap or KAF Global Property Fund.

If maxed, tu sbb PNB bukak ASB2

Ada plan nak join tak?

I remember someone mention KGF performance is bad past months all because of BolehLand Market

India focus fund is good for now looking at cheaper global oil price is good for their economy (some sifu recommend tis)

Invest in EPF

my advice is for u to just open an ASB2 account

topping up is easier than opening a new account

esp if the govt suddenly tried to entice majority voters with 10% first yr dividend for asb2? who knows? better be prepared than sorry

Maybe will do it when I want to unload a bit from ASB.

From ASB track record, early days dividend is very good

Good point! Pity that I don't qualify for it! Can only watch from the 3rd row seat! Ha.

I started on this buy ASX in bank thing in Nov 2013. In Jan 2014, I don't recall so many people in ASNB or banks withdrawing their ASB dividends then. Now, a different scene there. Why?

ASB2 take up rate still low, i believe the ASB2 dividend will be matching ASB, to encourage more investors.

My wife raised one issue with the new ASM passbook which I think is not a problem. Just to be certain, like to know from those who have changed to the new passbooks.

You need to close the old account. Open a new account.
Question is, what happens to the dividend?

My line of thinking is, if the balance in the old account is RM10k, then that 10K will be transferred to the new account. Interest will be calculated for the period in the old account and also for the period in the new account.

My wife does not think so. She fears one may lose out on the interest earned in the old account if that interest is not carried and stated in the new account now. My wife used to work for a bank and the methodology they used there is different from what I have described above.

Any one?

veli simple Solution..

keep all records from old passbook. from 1st April 2014 until Feb 28 2015. When ASNB announce divvy, calculated the divvy & write on paper. When update with new passbook, check the amount printed in new passbook with your earlier calculation u write on paper.

If less amount, then make official complain to ASNB within 30 days

that's what I do normally. before print on passbook, I already know my dividend how much
