Invested in PB Islamic Smallcap fund during its initial offering period. launched on 28/03/17, initial issuance price ended on 17/04/17. the price standstill since 18/04 till today.

in relation to local small cap which are on bullish run, shouldn't the price fluctuate? anyone can share the possibilities that could lead to standstill NAV during a fund's initial launch and early stage?

Any recommendations fund?
Which investment fund should I go Rhb or cimb?better then public bank?
I noob on investment fund..thank you...

Aiya, ppl made it very clear that cannot say negative things here... even if it's backed by facts 

Actually we help new/existing investors here to see how they are in a sinking ship and what are their options to keep afloat or better still, move faster 

I think if you do switching then no problem.

which of their funds that offer insurance again ?

Hello - any agents can advise my scenario?

I've a fund PIEBF invested with EPF. I wanted to switch to PB series fund, e.g. to PBSUKUK. Is there a way I can do it? It seems like I cannot switch out this fund through PMO, can I walk in to switch?

Hi,

Anyone knows what's the difference between Public China Select Fund and the newly launched Public Greater China Fund?

But if the consultant already make mistakes in recommending public mutual funds that are underperforming why make the same mistake using public mutual funds again. And why pay more for public mutual consultants when so many of them are not very competent in investment and their technical knowledge is even lower than some of the DIY folks here.

I have invested in PSF and PRSF via EPF investment scheme for past 4 years and the returns are slightly below EPF. I reached out to my consultant and instead he advice that this is UT a long term market , we need to wait further. He didn't advice me to do any switching. PM online platform is not as user friendly as FSM i feel for me the have a look and judge myself which funds i should change them to.

But why still stick with public mutual when their funds are lagging behind their peers?

Back to Basics

Was recently looking into these funds, and below are some of the info that was gathered.

-------------

The permissible range the fund can hold is 30% to 98% in the first 3 funds, 40% to 60% in the 4th fund, and in the last fund, 2% to 98%.

Date Launched (respectively):

PNVGF: China 29.64%, Taiwan 14.21%, USA 10.98%, Korea 6.06%, Hong Kong 5.06%.

==============

Comments/Remarks:

PFEBF is the sole and truly balanced fund, with assets in fixed income securities.

PNVGF, though recently launched this year, proves to be popular with the highest NAV asset of RM385 million. Its benchmark is pretty straight-forward, it is a straight-line 8% growth.

Flexible mixed asset funds can be considered for selection when there is volatility in the markets, and when the investor is unsure how the market outlook will be in the near future, and unsure where and how to allocated his funds.

Cheers.

PS. The info was taken from the montly reviews, dated 31-Oct-2017 published within PMO.

=========

Edit: typo corrected in one of the figures.

PPS. Had selected and swithced into 2 of them. Will be switching into another 2, maybe in January or February. The one fund not selected is the balanced fund. Preferred to have a permisable wider range that the fund manager is allowed to work with.

What is the difference between buying prs online in public mutual with a consultant and without consultant?any difference in term of charges?

oh... thanks!

You manage to pull from this new link?

Haha what for?
