Would like to know anyone have used them and their experience dealing with them. Is there minimum amount of capital for using them?

Aham is a large Malaysian asset manager offering many types of products. So the minimum amount is dependant on the product you are investing in.

Lowest I think would be their PRS fund with minimum of RM100 as initial investment. Their unit trust is RM1000.

Highest would be if you buy a wholesale bond with them. That would be like minimum USD200,000 for a USD wholesale bond.

Thanks for the reply, btw how can I file a complain against my CIMB banker for not following clients instructions for liquidating the fund (Called and met numerous occasions, when NAV was around 80 cents). He blames AHAM instead. any advice ?

You make the complaint to the bank official channel first. Go check cimb website for how to complaint. The bank will be obligated to respond.

Draft your complaint properly. Maybe get a lawyer friend to help draft it. Get ready supporting documents.

Other than not following instructions, was there also misseling? A lot of bankers get away with misselling financial products without properly informing client of the risk.

If not happy with the Bank response then can go to BNM, SC and or Financial Ombudsman for further action.

Below paragraph extracted from AHAMs PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT SHEET for AHAM Single Bond Series 4 (Formerly known as Affin Hwang Single Bond Series 4):

"5. What are the possible outcomes of my investment?
This Fund is a wholesale bond fund that invests primarily in a single-credit bond. The performance of the Fund would be
dependent on the bond that the Fund invests in. The Fund’s performance is reliant on the Manager’s expertise in managing
the Fund to meet its objective.

Unlike fixed deposits which generally provide a guarantee on capital invested and carry specific rate of return, the Fund’s
investment into the bond does not provide a guarantee on capital
contributed nor does it guarantee a fixed rate
of return."

The Fund endeavours to distribute income, if any, on an annual basis. However, the amount of income available for
distribution may fluctuate from year to year.

Different from what our CIMB's bank manager says regarding on capital guarantee.

Did cimb represent to you a capital guarantee?

Given only the below document, but did not disclose AHAM's side on capital not guaranteed as stated in it's PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS SHEET for AHAM Single Bond Series 4 (Formerly known as Affin Hwang Single Bond Series 4)

So the bank did not share with you the Aham prodict disclsoure sheet?

I think you should still complaint on the basis of misleading sales practice as you were not made fully aware of the risk of the product, in addition to the not following instructions to liquidate.

Right now follow up on the banks response.

After that, if unsatisfactory, get ready to escalate to the relevant authorities.

It' a bond and purchase through CIMB Bank Malaysia and its bank manager guarantees customers that the principal is guaranteed. Unless if CIMB bank manager has follow proper procedures in selling (letting know customers that the bond can be written down to zero) than we might have second taught. Is misselling here that what Im trying to say as we are victims to the CIMB bank manager, and CIMB Malaysia must be responsible towards it's customers.

A lot of these Branch Managers and RMs are just simply pushing all forms of products without fully explaining the risks. Last few years, I have heard of uncles and aunties being sold equity linked Glove stocks, China tech stocks. All kena burn.

About time some people make these bankers accountable.
