Like many of us, we seek for financial security and ultimately financial freedom. This blog is intended to act as a journal of investment as I journey towards that dream. At the same time, I hope that the articles written here would also benefit many others who share the same vision as me.
In my previous article Unit Trust Fair 2013, A Smashing Success, I mentioned about the Absolute Return strategy currently adopted by fund houses; Kenanga Investors Berhad and Hwang Investment Management Berhad.
Although I believe other fund houses are also adopting a similar strategy, for Kenanga and Hwang to promote this out in the open clearly shows their confidence and success in applying this strategy.
What is Absolute Return Strategy?
Instead of boring everyone with my writing, I would like to share a video recording about Absolute Return strategy presented by David Ng, CIO of Hwang Investment Management Berhad during his seminar session at Unit Trust Fair 2013.

tptan is absolutely right. Pity the fools who put money in unit trust ( should be renamed unit fraud ).

yup . fund manager taking 5% service charge plus all yr end charges fee .. then goyang kaki. jz simply buy . see the china fund 2007 0.25 till now 0.15 .. no dividend no appreaciation ... and many more fund are same .

Agreed with the fact that China Fund has performed rather badly..you can take a look at funds from other sector. Obviously there is a risk in investing. I am sure individuals invested into the bursa during 2008 also suffered great losses.

haha .. suck. giving fund manager 5.5% still losing so much money . dum ... dont know fund manager working or sleeping

Actually fund managers gain from the management expense ratio of about 1.XX %, for the 5.5% apart of it goes to the unit trust agent selling that fund. That's why some of us have now moved over to online investing platform that charges about 1-2% for each purchase. The same applies for those investing in the bursa, buying in will incur charges and charges apply when selling.

Most people lose money in unit trust because they always buy during bull market when the prices are already high. If you buy during bear market when the prices are low & keep until bull market, you'll make money - my own experience with unit trust & close-end fund.

This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....

Read in one of the 'Little Book' that if you put your money with the investment houses, after 26 years they will have more money than you do. That is the absolute return they are interested in.
