They do need to verify that you are a real person.

Btw, you can always cross your ic before sending it to 3rd party, if you haven't been doing it

Yup. I crossed double line and write fsm member application. That's is what I did for any application. Normally how long to got back to me?

One of the factor for the very high rise of GTF in the whole of 2015 is the MYR/USD weakness play, now that the reverse has come true, it is only natural GTF will drop in tandem.

I have been reducing my exposure to it since post CNY.

I maintain my bolehland exposure i.e., no change in % for the time being with a potential to increase when more data are obtained.

Within 1 or 2 business day, one of the staff will call you to verify

Is it a good time now to enter into bolehland funds, like KGF?

Yes just a simple questionnaire.

Today whole day no phone call.

you can call them

Is there an ideal number of funds that one should buy (and thereafter keep topping up within that certain number) or it doesnt matter the number of different funds provided the region/sector are all diversified? What is considered too many funds generally.

For example - if for malaysian small cap equities - there are several funds under different fund houses.. is it ideal to just focus on the one that performs best or its fine to have few funds which are all more or less same.

thanks for your views.

If you are doing DCA, then any time is a good time.

not sure about other investors.....
but I just like to have "extras" if possible, just in case the preferred one does not perform better or maintained its performance for that year....
fyi,...I had about 3 m'sia small caps now.....
there is no right or wrong, I think...
it is just up to one individual to do what he likes...end of the day...it is his money.

I am like u a little...

Any takers??

not enough monies to buy so that tis fund can have an impact on my portfolio performance....

Hmm... you can do a hindsight analysis... what if you choose 1 fund per sector... or 3 funds per sector... which would be better in past 3, 5 years? Then maybe we can discuss this.

Anyway, analysis aside, I only chose 1 fund per geographical sector. Except for asia pacific, I added eastspring, which in hindsight, abit unnecessary... never top up once. Minimum investment...

I have about 5 eq funds, 1 bond fund. Kinda ok with my portfolio... not complaining except for Aberdeen...

not buying

Very tempting

will think over it
