Economists laud investment strategy that paid off

PETALING JAYA: The Employees Provident Fund (EPF) has done very well with its investment strategy and diversification to be able to deliver handsome dividends despite poor economic conditions and the spate of withdrawals, say economists.

Prof Yeah Kim Leng of Sunway University said it was a highly commendable performance especially since more than RM100bil had been withdrawn under the various stimulus packages.
