    Hi Yow Chuan, do you own any of the PNB’s fund? I am just curious because you sell unit trust.
    I have some ASW 2020 unit, which was bought when I was still studying in secondary school. But now, I am too lazy to join the long queue.

    Hi Neo,

    I’ve hearing all these news on Amanah Saham Fund but unavailable to obtain the information of the performance. But i know that the distributions is around 7% on a yearly basis for ASW 2020. Besides the distributions, do you have any idea on the capital gain for ASW 2020? Is’t worth the longgggggggg queuing? I understand that the returns for most of the Public Unit Trust fund are around 10%.

    Hi KC, the amount of ASW 2020 I have (since secondary school days) is microscopic! At that time, I don’t even know what it’s for. I remember queuing up with other students at the bank (can’t even remember which bank now…) with other students and their parents.

    Liam, for your info, one of the unique feature about ASW 2020 is that it’s totally risk free because it’s price is fixed at RM 1.00 (which also means that there’s no potential capital gain).

    Hmm…that might explain why they are the favorites investment tools amongst Uncles and Aunties.

    Not bad, the whole thing is like a lucky draw. Well, scarcity is value, or so it seems.
