Hi, any ASB sifus here? I already tried on the ASB thread but got no response.

I'm quite naive about this whole ASB loan scheme finance terms in general so apologies in advance for any wrong concept or term that I will be using.

What I understand is one of the method of gaining profit, is by taking  a loan let say 100k for 25 years, put in into ASB and repay each month, then after let say 2 years, we'll repay the loan amount using the money we kept in ASB and we'll gain a few hundreds or thousand  after adding in interest. Is there anything that I misunderstood? Hehe

So my question is this:

1) After I took the ASB loan, is there a lock period where I am not allowed to withdraw full amount of my money deposited to repay my full loan amount? (Incase got rainy days where I can no longer afford the monthly installment and just want to repay the full loan).

2) Let say I want to have a monthly repayment of rm250, how many years and what amount of loan am I able to secure?

3) What is the salary requirements?

4) From all of the sifus opinion here, which bank offers the best deal for ASB loan? I'm thinking Maybank, since can just auto deduct straight from my salary each month 

5) Is this whole "short term game" of ASB borrowing generally advisable? Or is it just better to just put my own money each month at my convenience into ASB without making any loans?

Thanks in advance smile.gif

To make you understand better about ASBF you need to know what is the advantage first.

ASB financing is a method you use the bank money (OPM) to optimize your return.

For example if u are making asb saving;

540 monthly
for 10 years you only will get a total of RM92,890. Nett profit is only RM28,090.

while

if u are making 100k asbf with the same monthly RM540

Terminate at year 10 and you will get RM115,251. Nett profit is RM50,451.

The different is about RM22,361 in 10 years.


There are many method that can be use in asb financing suit with your objective and financial capability.

About the question you ask;

1) There are no longer lock in period at most bank. Thats mean you can terminate anytime you want without to pay any penalty. However if you apply your loan with takaful its recommended not to terminate less than 3 years otherwise you might need to pay the shortfall.

2) If you can up a little bit the monthly from 250 to 270 you can apply 50k loan with 30 years tenure.

3) At cimb if your salary is below than 3000 than your dsr must no be more than 60% and if your salary 3000 and above your dsr must not be more than 85%. What is dsr? You will ask this question. The debt service coverage ratio, also known as "debt coverage ratio", is the ratio of cash available for debt servicing to interest, principal and lease payments


4) CIMB interest rate now is 5.05%.

5) Yes, you can choose to make for short term or long term. You will get more with asb financing than asb saving.

Hope this may help you to make your decision. If you want to ask further can private message me. I'm always happy to share my knowledge about asb financing.

haziqnet i got a question.. maybe off topic abit...
i saw some of the bank offering asb loan where... only the first year need to paid but subsequent then no need to paid anymore (as it using the dividen to paid it off , i really not sure)... is this true? what are the pros and cons of it?

Yes true. Its call rolling dividend method. You use the dividend u get every year to pay for the next year installment. You repeat the process till you want to terminate or end tenure.

This method only possible if the given dividend every year is more than your whole year installment. Let say your whole year installment is 13200 and the dividend you get is 14k than it will be more than enough + you get an extra money for that year. However if the dividend is less than your whole year installment you will need to topup using your own money. For example your dividen is 13000 and your installment is 13200, than you need to topup 200.

The only cons if the dividend you get is less than your 1 year installment because u need to top up. However at the end you still profit so dun worry.

Many asbf player using this method because it only use little capital and even if need to topup its not burdening.
