hey guys been meaning to ask, when you buy your funds do you choose your fund managers or just let the system choose the "default"  fund manager. I never gave it enough through till you guys started talking about a certain female fund manager.

I couldn't find any info about choosing the right FM. does it affect anything?

Since we can't invest AFSIF from FSM, is AFSBF a comparable alternative to AFSIF in terms of allocation and return?

So biased geh... Heh

Must be cos your also on a first name basis with the FMs, like the other forumers here...

You cannot choose your fund manager

You choose the fund(s) that your favourite fund manager manages

AFSBF is select bond right? Also cannot buy from FSM jor. It's pure asian bond fund, with currency hedging. Good stuffs  :thumbsup:
Joke only la.... cannot tell meh...
Come to think of it, I've not attended a single investment talk before... quite sure that's not a pre-requisite to be a decent investor

then what's that little selection box you get upon purchasing a said fund. it says would you like to choose your fund manager or am I just making a mistake

If u select Affin-Hwang at the 1st box, the 2nd box will show list of ONLY Affin-Hwang funds.
If u leave 1st box empty, and go direct to 2nd box, ALL funds will come out in alphabetical order.

hahahahahahah oh come on. its not everyday someone turns into a retard. Good that I asked no? Hahaha haha. sorry la man.

now if you would excuse me. I will now start digging a deep hole to bury my shame. I have disgraced my family's honour

Thank you for your valuable pointers.    Actually I added TA EEF because I need something to help me get a bit of footing in the Europe ex-UK region after I dropped AmSchroder EEA and I am also interested in having EU REITs and ETFs exposures. I have yet to actively add money into this TA EEF fund as back then I was focusing on other funds of mine and Europe was a little unstable. Only begun the VA for it now after lump sum transfer from AmSchroder EEA to this fund.

As for CIMB Global Titans Fund, I suddenly felt the urge to dip a foot into the Developed Market as well for better coverage. I am not sure if this is wise. Since I already have another global fund, the RHB Global FF. Lol.

Asnita bond is really tempting right now. I like that it is performing well and rather stable too. Was considering parking more non-emergency savings under this bond. But since I kinda already have 3 bonds funds. I should really drop one of them. I already have ample exposure to Asia Ex-Japan through my Ponzi 2 fund so Affin Hwang Bond might tip the scale a little too much.

For a newbie, your portfolio list very long, like train rail....
Have you think of Quality vs Quantity of the funds?

Abit regret didnt top up few weeks ago when local market drop. Now rise back, not a very good moment to 'top up'. Anyone here portfolio doesnt even achieve 6% for 12 month return?

I am really no good at maths.    Just a girl trying to learn from all the big boys and big sisters here.

No chance to enter AHSIF and AHSBF through FSM then 

guess i will just stick back to RHB AIF 

Full disclosure - I buy Select Bond from our inhouse UTC lukenn 

i may be over sensitive,...but if i can recall..somewhere last month there seems to be some "bad" blood postings by you..
sorry if i am wrong..

For 4% expected return why come to UTF? And kena charge 2% sales charge for what?

Go stay comfortably at FD lar!

It is like buying a Toyota AE hachi-rouku and driving below our national speed limit.
