Amanah Saham Nasional 3 Historical Returns

I am not sure how many of you lined up for the 1 billion units of ASW 2020 this morning, but unlike previous years, these hot bananas were still selling after lunch hour. Reader LWY who camped at the POS office since 7:50am claimed that it was sold out at 2:00 pm.

Here’s a look at another one of Permodalan Nasional Berhad’s fund- the Amanah Saham Nasional 3’s track record:

ASN3’s return for 2002 – 6.00%
ASN3’s return for 2003 – 7.00%
ASN3’s return for 2004 – 7.50%
ASN3’s return for 2005 – 7.00%
ASN3’s return for 2006 – 6.30%
ASN3’s return for 2007 – 8.00%

I’ve had this fund since I was in high school… and if I knew it would give such returns, I would have ‘bought-in’ with all my ang-pow money.

  2. just curious about this, I went to asnb website and saw that there is a 5% selling charges per unit. How does this work? Lets say profit from this investment is 7%, and I sell it with a charge of 5%, does this means I'm only earning 2%?? Hope someone can clarify my investment doubts.

    Thanks.

  3. Hi Alex,

    That is why unit trust like ASN3 is for your long-term investment. If we took out from out the dividend, say 8%pa (2007), your net return is 3%pa. It happen to me.

  4. Hi Ishamim,
    Thanks for replying. :-)
    LOL, does this means that we shouldn't be happy if the return is 8%…if I'm not mistaken based on the net return, fixed deposit interest rate is much higher…in the long run, unit trust funds / mutual funds (low risk) should able to provide more than fixed deposit …am i right?

  5. You can buy the ASW 2020 & ASM at 10 Fully operational ASNB branch…. You can buy more easier, because normally they will open 4 counter (2-> Top-up/book holder & 2-> New application)…. If in KL ASNB, they opened 12 counter, 6->topup & 6-> New application.

    Also, ASNB Branch start selling at 8.15am, where Banks start at 9am & Post Office at 8.30am
