A compelling investment strategy


Speaking on the benefits of investing in ETFs, Chong Lee Choo, (pic) director of ETF and innovation lab at Affin Hwang Asset Management, points out: “ETF is a hybrid investment tool that combines the best features of unit trust funds and stocks.”

INVESTORS’ relative unfamiliarity with exchange-traded funds (ETFs) remain the biggest hurdle to growth of the sector in Malaysia.
