Why on earth do you want to increase the sales charge? 
If follow the logic someone else above, bad for investors, also bad for FSM PR lol

After finding out I can access FSM Msia I do a scan. The recommended funds are not bad. But the Fund Selector Show Columns lack the Dividend Yield %, Dividend Frequency for those who want to target dividend paying UT.

Anyone have any input regarding Maybank Global Sustainable Technology Fund?

Was planning to invest into TA Global Technology Fund initially, then I found the Maybank's fund now I'm contemplating between the two. Looking through their holdings seems pretty similar to me.

TA Global Technology however been around for quite some times already and the performance is really good. Maybank Global Sustainable Technology however only started recently in Jan.

I honestly unsure about that part. Mind explaining more about the segment? The differences between those two.

Any year end promo campaign currently?

Are we (FSM) going to have this ?

I think in all businesses we need to reach a critical mass in order to launch such promotion. Reason being you need the volume and traffic to absorb the "loss" from business view and hope to "recoup and earn" by a lot more volume bought/sold from customer etc. FSM Spore in the early years do impose a sales charge and it is only years later when they sort of reach enough "business" do they start to offer such promotion at 0% sales charge.

FSM Msia may not have reached that critical mass yet so business wise not able to give such promotion. Give it time to grow like how FSM Spore did way back in year 2000. But not sure FSM Msia face which fund business competitor this time round. I know FSM Spore face off dollarDex in year 2000.

StashAway is also on annual recurring fee mechanism just to say. Sales charge upfront means when you put X dollars, upfront you get less than X dollars worth of units which actually hurt more. If you look at fund fact sheet some returns they have two numbers. One as it is and one with sales charged levied. The sales charge do impact your returns more in comparison to the quarterly platform fee in my opinion. If you managed to get a good fund, the returns can help to cover your quarterly platform fee. Of cuz I avoid this as I usually invest using CPF which does not have fees and also usually buy dividend paying funds to help cover the fees. Now I am on diamond tier no quarterly platform fees.

Fees is everywhere. Be it upfront like ETF,stocks,fund etc versus a periodic frequency levied fees you can't escape. As long as the financial instrument you invest give you good returns to help cover that fees and still got profits it is ok in my opinion. Of cuz I understand some investor don't like recurring fees which is ok also just don't invest and look for other financial instruments like stock,ETF for e.g

Just to give an e.g last time I buy from bank 10k sales charge 5% I lost 500. 500 is alot! I only invest 9.5k to buy the units. Imagine I got 10k worth of units and the fund good I get more profits to help pay the fees which is levied only 3 months later and then every quarter.

Funds with no sales charge and lesser platform fees you got lobang to introduce?
I think I read previously,... Recent postings about poem sg or dollareex? (Now on hp not easy to google) try check it out?
Currently for FSM Spore the quarterly platform fee is below
Equity funds
0.0875% for first S$300,000
0.05% for amount beyond S$300,000
0% for diamond tier client

The 300k is regardless of cash or CPF so you can invest using CPF instead. CPF is equivalent to your Msian EPF,PRS which also enjoy 0% quarterly platform fee also I think. So can follow my last time strategy use FSM for non-cash trade. Unfortunately FSM Msia seem not to have dividend paying funds (I mean dividends paid out not reinvest kind) else cash trade to buy those dividend paying funds.

Any key takeaway message from FSM talk today? Want to take advantage of the 0% offer now to buy some UT

For ETF RSP, the fee really USD1 only?
Any other hidden fees involved?

When I look at this site: https://www.fsmone.com.my/etfs/get-started/stock-fees

There are: processing fee, stamp duty, Exchange Trading Fees, SEC fees,etc.

So I'm confused what are the fees involved for ETF RSP.

Thanks.

any interesting Chinese stocks, the so called “A share” to recommend? Other than already well know counter like Alibaba, Tencents and Meituan?

I will personally invest in UT and Chinese stocks relate ETF…leave it to the fund manager select the stocks for me.

no merdeka promo ?

What do you guys think about the Manulife US equity Fund for US exposure? Almost always falls short of the benchmark (SP500), be it in bull or bear markets, but I guess that’s expected for mutual funds of the most efficient market huh.
