EPF's diversification pays off

  • Assuming there are no major impairments, the EPF should be able to announce a return of close to 5%, which if achieved, would be a feather in the cap for the fund.
  • As for Permodalan Nasional Bhd (PNB), its funds, particularly the ASB was set up to increase Bumiputera equity participation in the corporate sector.
  • When the large capitalised stocks of Bursa Malaysia outperform, funds under PNB do well, particularly ASB.
