Hey all,
Just seeking confirmation. Last years dividend for ASB.
7.5% + 1% bonus.
The 1% really for people who had thier account for 10 years or more? What if I already have had asn for more than 10years, but only recently opened asb?

Read tis
http://www.asnb.com.my/pdf/BERITA/2014/18122014ASB_BM.pdf

"Amanah Saham Nasional Berhad (ASNB), anak syarikat milik penuh Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB) hari ini mengumumkan agihan pendapatan sebanyak 7.50 sen seunit dan bonus 1.00 sen seunit bagi Skim Amanah Saham Bumiputera (ASB) untuk tahun kewangan berakhir 31 Disember 2014."

Doesn't really say what I was looking for. Or did I miss something? Anyway, I'll check my book soon...

if u have ASN account before 1990, maybe can get bonus (because unitholders given option to "convert" into ASB)

after 1990, only ASB got bonus

hope tis info helps

Went to the bank to update the book.
I got "Pendapatan ASB" and "Bonus ASB"
But the "Bonus ASB" assuming this is the bonus, is not even 1%...
Huh convert? Didn't even know that existed haha but whatever, that account will be on idle.

Monthly Bonus Amount calculation:-


So u total 12mth to get 1year amount

Hmm.. Alright thanks for that.

Just a quick question. I invested 10k in asb. Since the dividend rate is 8.5% doesn't it mean I'm getting 850? But right now why I only get 8% of it. Some expert mind to explain it?

dividend is 7.0%

bonus is 1.5%

don't confuse the two

Hi guys.. Total noob here. How to open amanah Saham account? Anyone did it in bank? Online banking can deposit and withdrawthre shares right?

+ bonus is to encourage investors to hold the investment for long term, as one can only maximize the bonus payout by holding it long term.

Hi guys. Went to Maybank yesterday cluelessly, planning to start an ASB2 account. However the bank exec told me to look at ASG-Kesihatan instead, and he cited that the growth are more stable and on upward trend.

Should I agree with him and jump in with ASG-Kesihatan? Or are there other PNB funds that performs better?

Let me inform my objective first. I would like to save some of my saving accounts cash elsewhere to:
1. get better return than FD
2. minimal risk
3. easy liquidity - incase I need to take out and use it for emergency (marriage, house needs, etc... Yeah, I consider marriage fund as emergency, lol).

Not sure if I should go ahead with ASG-Kesihatan since all ASG have 5% sales charge. Even if est. 2015 returned is at 7.2%, I'll only get 2.2% max (7.2% - 5%) if the marriage fund is required for next year

Anyone has an idea what's the best option for me? Will it still be any PNB funds with 0% sales charge?

Thanks everyone
