    The annual fees is 3%. It will eat into your profits in the long run. Read “I Will Teach You to be Rich” by Ramit Sethi. He explains it. I had PM unit trust for many years. Realised the returns were dismal over > 10 years. Took most of it out. Thanks for the video. Not many unsponsored videos these days.

    I am Malay and I always prefer ASB and ASB Financing,low return but very stable in long term. I dont know why some of Malay despise ASB and their low return,they are even zero risk.Most of unit trust is suck,mainly because the salesman always sugar coated their story about unit trust. To diversify the investment,unit trust is one of the choices but should be on Bond and Sukuk.

    one more thing i would like to share is most unit trust or mutual funds doesnt take inflation into account. so technically the risk of under performance is high if u pull in inflation in account. to be realistic, EPF would be safer or Private trustees cash trust can actually provide you better. If you are looking to make like double digit returns, best is to invest urself in commodities, stocks, etc.

    Appreciate the insight guys, keep up the content. Having watched your recent video on Stashaway, between Unit Trust and Stashaway (ETF), which would you consider in the long-run to be a better asset class for investment?

    • @FIRLco
      @FIRLco  4 роки тому +2

      Thanks Jessvinder!
      Unit trust and stashaway are actually not asset classes. They're just intermediaries for asset classes like stocks, bonds, etc.
      As to which is the best, that depends on how well you understand the assets.
      FOr eg: if you understand stocks better than the one with stocks(regardless of UT or Stashaway) will do well.

    Hi would like to know you mention UT is low return is it referring to majority or all of them?
    cause I had been intro about some of the UT is about more than 10 - 20 % yearly and they even show me 3 years about 90% return. this confuse me. John can you advise me ?

    • @zaeimsirat3555
      @zaeimsirat3555 2 роки тому +1

      Hi Jackson, while it is true that in good year, u might get high return as high as 50% in 1 year but pls dont think that way. It is not how UT works. In AVERAGE, you might get 8-15% per annum but not every year you would get that kind of return. UT is designed for a medium to long term investment which means u have to invest for long term like 3 years or more because in some years you probably will get a negative return or low return. That 1 year if you get a very high return will cover the year that you get a low return. Thats why it is 8-15% in Average. Maybe if u get lucky to receive a 20-30% return after only 1 year, u have 3 options.
      1. Keep it for long term (10 years or more)
      2. Withdraw your gain to secure your profit.
      3. Move your gain to a low risk fund.
      Hope this helps. :)

    Almost unbiased except the other side of the coin wasn't explained better. Information disparity is reduced, how about time to research n invest when you have 9 to 5 job. Secondly, fund manager is not incentives to make profit since not commission based, how about remisers that are taking higher risk than they should to make extra money? Thirdly, time horizon of the investment wasn't mentioned.

    Hey MJ n John, what are your opinions on insurance savings plan and also investment linked plan? Are they as good as unit trust? What are your thoughts on it? Also in our parents generation many have been enticed with their “projected return” and end up upon maturity date the value is lesser than the amount they invested.

      @Min Young. Every financial products has it's uses and objectives. You won't use Washing Detergent to wash your car right?
      Drawing parallels, insurance products are used as tools for:
      1. Risk management and
      2. Wealth preservation.
      It was never meant to be used as an investment tool. Think of it like your sword and your shield. Unless you are Captain America, I doubt you will be using your shield as your weapon of choice for an attack.
      It doesn't do justice to the topic in a comment space here (maybe if there's enough demand we will create an insurance series on this) to give you the full picture but I'll be as concise as possible here.
      Use insurance for the 2 objectives I mention above. I'm a trained insurance planner (John here) and a big believer of insurance.
      However, find other financial instruments to grow your wealth. Learn what are the differences on financial asset classes, understand how they work, and you will realize there's many other choices to grow your wealth. Even if you don't pick individual stocks like us, unit trust or cheap index ETFs like Stashaway are better options for wealth creation that picking an insurance savings plan which pay only slightly more than risk free rate (e.g Fixed Deposit rates).
      Good luck and do reach out again if you need help!

    Hi, thank you for your video. My qtn is you mentioned that UT's rarely register double digit growths. However, two UT funds that I analysed have returned annualised double digits growth over a 10 yr period, sourced from Lipper. In some years, the returns even hit betw. 15-21%. Am I reading the info correctly? Correct me if I'm wrong, but the idea behind UT is long term, and if an investor is willing to hold their stake with that perspective, then there's a decent chance of hitting returns that outperform even EPF, for e.g.. Your take pls

      The calculation will be 1.8% of whatever you put into UT, for eg:
      if you put in 100,000, then the fee will bee 1,800.
      You can find the fee in the annual report/prospectus.

      Depends on the type of fund you choose. There are funds that gives dividend annually and also fund that gives dividend but not every year. On the prospectus they will state whether the dividend is annual or incidental. On the other hand, unit trust do not focus on dividend. It focus more towards the capital gain. This capital gain yang akan bagi high return to u. Not the dividend. For example, although ASB n epf is also a unit trust, the way they works is different. Asb price per unit are fixed RM1 = 1 unit. Thats why asb n epf hanya bagi dividend. No capital gain. Hope this helps. :)
