EPF eyes more investments overseas to boost income


During a media briefing here, the EPF

KUALA LUMPUR: The Employees Provident Fund (EPF) is actively looking for more investment opportunities overseas, as the income from foreign assets is significant towards the performance of the pension fund.

During a media briefing here, the EPF’s chief executive officer Datuk Shahril Ridza Ridzuan emphasised the need to look for more interesting opportunities globally to counterbalance the impact of lower returns from the local equity market.
