Very interesting fund's objective.

For the past weeks, really good for bargain-hunters

May I know did PM contribute dividen to us (jz like share) ?

It depends on the fund portfolio. Some fund will pay out dividend (distribution) in annual basis especially income or dividend funds. Others will pay pay out dividend (distribution) in incidental basis.

Read the master prospectus for more details.

I had invest in PCSF . May I know did PCSF will pay dividen ?

bcos I dint hv the PCSF prospectus in hand now , so need u all help ...

Thanks...

If I'm not mistaken, PCSF dividend pay out is based on incidental.

Pay or not pay, it is still the same, any distribution will be deducting the fund NAV. If fund is making money (enable for them to give dividend) then it already shown up in the daily increment on the NAV.

So don't bother too much on the dividend/distribution/splitting side.

Like wat hv been mentioned, PCSF distribution payout is incidental & by any case, the distribution will b pay out during its financial year end which is 31st July.

That is if and only if the fund makes substantial profit to b given out as dividend.

But, the most important is the capital growth that v should b looking at for this fund. If capital growth (i.e. profit) is good, most of the time, distribution will b given out as well.

Companion article on the launch of Public Islamic Optimal Growth Fund:

http://www.publicmutual.com.my/page.aspx?n...80416_1200_pg01

Let say 1 of the fund , the financial year end is 30 April . And let say the fund is going to give distribution(dividen) .
If I go buy the fund now (go buy around 21th-25th April) and wait until 30 April and beyond , when the fund give distribution , do I received the distribution(dividen) ?

There is a certain cut-off point for new investors that come in b4 distribution to b eligible for distribution. Usually a few days before the distribution.

But, whether you invest right before distribution or after distribution...it is the same.

Not very understand . Mean I can get the distribution or not if I invest b4 25th April ?

After some clarification, if the distribution date is on 30th April...all investors that remain registered in the fund until 30th April will be eligible for the distribution.
