MODE OF ACCEPTANCE OF INVESTMENT FROM UNITHOLDERS
 
We have reviewed the current practice by UTCs on the acceptance of investment from your customers and would like to inform that, with immediate effect, all UTCs are to refrain from accepting investment, including PAI,  in the form of cash from your investors. 
 
Non acceptance of cash will also eliminate the risk of UTCs carrying cash on behalf of fundholders.
 
Investment can be accepted in any of the following mode :
 
1)        Cheque
            -          The cheques are to be made payable to Public Mutual Berhad, 
                        followed by the first holder’s NRIC number for PII or Fund Account
                        number for PAI.
            -           Example : 
                        For PII
                        Public Mutual Berhad (IC : 600303-03-5333)
 
                        For PAI
                        Public Mutual Berhad (A/C : 01234567-8)
 
2)        Bank Draft
            -           The mode of issuance is similar to cheques.
 
3)        Funds Transfer within PBB account
            -           The investor is allowed to transfer funds from his/her Savings or
                        Current  account maintained with PBB into the intended fund.
            -           The TT advice or transfer slip or bank-in slip must be attached
                        with the investment application form
 
All UTCs are required to adhere strictly to the above. 
 
The above will take immediate effect.
