i saw the issue is raised, but i dont see anyone objecting it. Because this industry seem to have many unqualified/unregulated agent it seem it is the cause that makes trust company with bad name.
yea it is estate planning, but typical malaysian dont know what is estate planning some layman even think is is estate agent (sell house). i guess the agent promote it in Fixed Deposit/investment style to approach customer for them to understand the concept of estate planning.
but the question is are the red flag really a red flag? cause people that subscribe to cash trust so far have no issue. market have many trust company other than ubb, i dont see other trust company have issue as well. so far everyone seem to get back their promise on trust deed.
sorry guys to ask so much, my dad want to invest in their product but ask me to do research, when i search online i found these so seeking some help around here.
I am not saying UBB will hv issue or not hv issue in future.
Just that I am very cautious when /if someone uses this phrase to make decision or promotes it.
" the question is are the red flag really a red flag? cause people that subscribe to it so far have no issue?"
Real example,
There was a company established in 2009 and since 2013 had for investment product that had been giving consistent 3%-7% roi every 5 weeks without any withdrawal issue.
Many red flags had been raised by many people and even authorities had also tell its citizens to be alert about that company.
Alert is just alert, not a ban.
Red flags are just warning without proof of imminent sure failures.
So investors keep on investing in it and had been compounding and adding more to reap the rewards.
1k USD if keep compounding for 10 years will most likely become a million usd.
If keep for another 10 yrs will become about a billion USD too.
That was what were told and projected to be.
In reality, .... in about a decade later, in Dec22, it, .....
BTW, that company even till now is still operating, platform still active for people to exit and the company is still promoting new investment products too
