Guys,

I just opened an account. Main goal to invest in bond funds with nett return of 5% after all deductions I have other investments in equity, property, etc. I am mulling the following:

Affin Hwang Select Bond - 17.5%
KAF Bond - 17.5%
Libra Asnita Bond - 17.5%
RHB Islamic Bond - 17.5%
RHB Emerging Markets Bond - 30%

In short, Malaysia 70% and emerging markets 30%. All bond funds.

Thoughts or suggestions most welcome and appreciated.

Matt

Thanks for the feedback. Mind to elaborate on the risk to return ratio? According to FSM site, Anita has slightly higher 3 yr risk-return ratio compared to KAF.

According to portfolio simulator, you can get 7.9% return with 3.34% volatility.

That should already exceeded your expectation. LOL.

Hihi, may I know which simulator are you using? Because I am currently using fundsupermart's simulator and it didn't provide any info on the volatility. Would be great if can get that info as well. Thanks!!

Received email titled Confirmation Statement for Platform Fee Deduction.

Not sure how many people are interested but I attended the luncheon organized by FSM and Affin Hwang today. The speaker was David Ng, Affin Hwang's Chief Investment Officer, talking about their Absolute Return Fund 2.

One thing I didn't properly take note of before is that it does have a performance fee, making it almost exactly like a hedge fund's fees. 1% annual management fee and 20% of gains after a hurdle performance target of 8% per annum.

Ng is apparently bullish, especially on China. The audience asked questions about the effect of Trump's policies and the possibility of a trade war. Ng admitted that he doesn't know what Trump would do and a trade war would hurt but he thinks it is unlikely.

If you're looking for local stock tips, he said he's been buying Bumi Armada and Mega First (for their Laos dam project). I asked about his fund buying shorts and he answered that while the fund can buy shorts and hedges, they normally don't do so and that in fact the short they bought towards the end of 2016 was a mistake which he did out of worry about the US elections.

He claims the minimum investment amount is RM100,000 for now but will likely rise to RM250,000 in a couple of months once the fund reaches its new soft cap. There were about 20+ investors in attendance. I found it odd that all were Chinese though FSM specifically stated in its invitation that the luncheon is pork free.

Time to move the money to pb mutual

Hi guys, very new to UT world here. Was told to come here seeking for more advice, so I have a lump sum of ~50k and was wondering which funds are recommended, its for long term investing till retirement. BTW I saw FSM did provide some sort of specialist advice, how much do they charge and are they any good?

In fact I bought some UT directly from AffinHwang and I was wondering what is the difference with FSM since FSM also sells Affin Hwang UT, is FSM offers lower fee is all? In terms of effort of managing the UT, is it the same between FSM and Affin Hwang?

Thanks.

FRESH MEAT! FRESH MEAT FOR THE GRINDER! I mean..welcome all new investors!

just asking because i see not much people are buying manulife funds.

p/s: my dad and me are oredi under agent of manulife, the return are not satisfying (but at least service charge was cleared)

nothing sexier than a woman who knows how to handle finances. and their man!

Reits is not performing in this bullish market.

I am thinking to switch out my 2% of Am reits to precious metal. LOL.

My port is too aggressive. When bad time comes, I don't know I will be brave enough to switch  to bond fund or I might just stay put and do nothing.
