Greetings, I am new to FSM. What would the Sifu's here recommend in terms of fund allocation for an Agressive Portfolio with good diversification.
I have a long investment horizon.

Somewhere along the thread, I saw this :
40% CIMB Asia Pacific Dynamic Income Fund
30% CIMB Global Titans Fund
20% Kenanga Growth Fund
10% Manulife India Equities Fund

Is this good diversification and are they good funds for growth?

I would like to have some bond fund too in the mixed. Any suggestions/recommendations are most welcomed. Thank you.

Wow,...joined lyn 10 yrs ago, but just 2nd postings? where have you been all these years?

ok, back to topic.....
the above portfolio "may" looks good and suitable for you...BUT are they really suitable for you?

Keep Your Risks In Check
Different investments come with different levels of risks and investors need to understand and know the risks that they can stomach given the circumstances that they are in before making a decision on what to invest.

ARE YOU AGGRESSIVE, BALANCED OR CONSERVATIVE?
To stay ahead of the game, it is not only important to understand the risks of the investments you are looking at, but also to understand your personal risk appetite. And the best way to do it is to assess your actual experience in investing. Investors who need advice or want a second-opinion on their investments can contact our Client Investment Specialists. They are able to assist you in distinguishing between unit trusts on our platform. Another method is to take the investor suitability assessment form by answering some questions such as your invesment objectives, risk tolerance, financial profile and investment experience.
For instance, you might have thought you are an aggressive investor who can cope with a high level of risk. However, in practice, if you find that you always panic too soon every time the market dips, and get overly euphoric and pump in more money whenever markets are on a roll, then high-risk investments may not so suitable for you because they are likely to cause you to lose money.
Our research team has also built the recommended portfolios as a guideline for investors based on different risk appetite. For more investment ideas, investors can take note of the articles we put out highlighting our research views of a particular region, market or sector.

I have been passively growing & learning throughout ten years. Imagine the compound interest in knowledge. Haha. Thanks for the tips. I guess I shall just mirror the recommended portfolio in FSM. Because I truly believe no one can predict the future. The most important thing is stay invested no matter what the circumstances are. thumbup.gif

Dear All, I have a few legit questions.

1) If I already have funds in Public Mutual Berhad which are none of those listed on FSM, can I switch them to any of the ones in FSM? Or do I have to cash out then in again (which might not be the most economical way)?

2) For those who have experienced both, how does PMB compare to FSM in terms of long term net profitability?

2) What is your take on PRS? Apart from the RM1000 incentive from government, does it worth going long term VCA for PRS? Which is the best PRS fund available now on FSM?

Thank you.

Typically how long does FSM take to activate one's account once one has sent in all the necessary form and documents? 2 working days?

Contrarion where all the big money is.
On the contrary, why not just speculate with individual stocks? More efficient and cost effective. Unit trusts as collection of stocks are designed for longer holding periods.

I have some funds in Public Mutual making -2.1% return over a course of 3 years (it isn't only pale in comparison to FD, but also failed to beat inflation) bangwall.gif. Very keen to move these monies to FSM. I called FSM. The person said I have to apply for redemption from Public Mutual, then email the redemption slip to FSM to get the zero sales charge up to 1 month from date of redemption.

Questionssss :

1) Must I walk into Public Mutual branch to perform such redemption transaction?

2) Do I get the entire process right? Anyone with similar experience mind to share?

3) Should I just let my bullets sit idle in Public Mutual first till it makes a gain when the market improves, rather than cashing it out now with paper loss? In the meantime, injecting fresh new funds into FSM?

Any thoughts about the things listed above would be much appreciated guys. biggrin.gif

For FSM PRS Fund :
An annual fee of RM8.48* will be deducted from your investment amount for subsequent investment on the next calendar year. *GST 6% included.

Which means... RM8.48 would be deducted each year until we reach retirement age?

So you dont have fsm acct because you want to wait until the market crash and you want to make use of the 1% sales charge?

You know everytime you open a beneficiary account, you get the new acct member benefit? Was advised by a forummer here. Anyway someone young like you probably not opening beneficiary acct. I just think the reason of you doing things is... very weird.

Regarding Q1, there is no need to inform Public Mutual about this "switch" from Public Mutual to FSM, as it is actually an outright sales from Public Mutual and then with proof, FSM gives to an offer to get 0% SC upto 1 month.

You key thing you need to decide on is actually within the one month, which are the funds you want to purchase at 0% SC, as lump sum purchase entry price is significantly determine your future ROI.

Thank you.

The proof you meant, would it be the receipt I receive upon withdrawing my funds out from Public Mutual?

If say I were to take out RM20k fund, FSM would allow up to RM20k purchase with 0% Sales Charge up to 1 month? Is this truly how it works?

YES, that was how it was supposed to had been in the past.
BUT, all that was told here had been / was past conditions....or may be part of a condition...
therefore, it would be advisable for you to talk to the FSM CS for latest up to date T&C and procedures.

after you had done contacting them...pls provide the latest feedback in here for the benefits of us here, will you?

After speaking to a lady with a sexy voice from FSM, this is how the process go :
1) withdraw fund from Public Mutual Berhad and keep the receipt
2) email the receipt to FSM. they would reply within 1-2 days (depending on what time they receive said email)
3) wait for a reply from FSM. Once they have acknowledged, can purchase any fund from the ones listed in FSM for 0% SC except for AFFIN HWANG. (I don't know why is this). When you have purchased and transacted, send them an email to remind them to manually adjust the transaction so that there won't be any SC. If say you withdraw RM10K fund from PMB, you have up to 1 month to buy up to RM10K worth of fund from FSM.

I just went to withdraw my fund. There's no receipt issued. Just sign on some forms. And managed to have a photocopy of the form. Probably I will snapshot the transaction later when the money is banked in and send it to FSM.

You don't have to invest the exact amount. If you invest less, you don't fully make use of your 0% SC benefit. If you invest more, pay the additional with normal SC. Right ?

I think that's the general idea.

Don't go into GEM. head back four pages back for the explanation.

Would that be Page 131? I have been scanning back and forth. Only saw some remarks reg Emerging Markets been up by 20% for the past few months.

So what would you suggest if not GEM?

Since market is going up now, I don't mind getting a fund in red now rather than buying one that's already in the green. Haha.

It seems Affin Hwang funds are not eligible for the zero SC for transfer-in from other fundhouses.
Any reasons to shy away from these funds suggested at FSM mainpage?
Thoughts on Eastspring Investments Global Emerging Markets Fund?

Seems too Asian heavy no, for a long term investment?

For long term investment (20-30 years), probably it's better to pump in more money in undervalued (but growing) regions of the world?
Maximise on upside and minimise on downside.

That's a valid argument. Any reason for Manulife US as compared to Aberdeen Islamic World Equity Fund - Class A?

while waiting for value added assistance....
I attached a file....it is in Excel Windows
not sure if it can be used for MAC

instead of manually updating individual NAVs, I am using this file to auto update my portfolio NAVs from FSM...
just key in the parameter, press CTL+U to update,
then copy and PASTE (Value) into your portfolio excel file

try it ??
*
CTL + U = Underline, isn't it? It's the shortcut key for underline.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

I think you're trying to click on "Command + U" (Which is underline), what yklooi mean was "Control + U". However, I tried and it just showing Active X error again. I did some read up and it seem like the marco in excel doesn't support in mac.  rclxub.gif Maybe will just have to use windows for this. (Excel from yklooi worked on windows)

Is there any alternative that I can use with Mac?
