The fund comes with free takaful coverage of up to RM100,000 per qualified unitholder. Terms and conditions apply. </span></p> <p align="justify"><span style="font-size:85%;">Public Mutual’s Chairman Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr. Teh Hong Piow said PIABF is an Islamic balanced fund that seeks to provide income and capital growth over the medium- to long-term period by investing in a portfolio of investments in domestic and regional markets that complies with Shariah requirements. “Up to 60% of the fund’s net asset value (NAV) can be invested in selected regional markets which include Japan, South Korea, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand and other approved markets. The equity exposure of PIABF will generally range from 40% to 60% of its NAV,” he continued. </span></p> <p align="justify"><span style="font-size:85%;">According to Tan Sri Teh, the fund allows investors the opportunity to invest in a balanced approach where investments are made in domestic and regional Shariah-compliant equities and Islamic debt securities in near equal proportion to spread out the risks. “PIABF is suitable for investors with conservative to moderate risk-reward temperament with preference for receiving income and a respectable measure of capital growth,” he added. </span></p> <p align="justify"><span style="font-size:85%;">The issue price / NAV of PIABF is at <strong>RM0.2500 per unit</strong> during the 21-day initial offer period of <strong>21 August 2007 to 10 September 2007</strong>. During the offer period, a promotional service charge of 5.45% of NAV per unit is extended to the purchase of units of PIABF by investors. Investors who opt for Direct Debit Instruction with PIABF during the offer period will also enjoy the <strong>promotional service charge</strong> of 5.45% of NAV per unit for as long as the Direct Debit is active. Terms and conditions apply. The minimum initial investment for the fund is RM1,000 and the minimum additional investment is RM100. </span></p> <p align="justify"><span style="font-size:85%;">PIABF is distributed by the 20,000-strong Public Mutual unit trust consultants.

Here in Public Mutual, we play a major role in clothing such dreams with muscle and sinew for our 500,000 (and counting) investors. The concept of <i>Financial Freedom</i> is integral to our long-term focus. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;">So, what precisely do we mean by that catch phrase?

The moment you achieve this state, you will no longer be shackled to a job you hate. You can choose to follow the dictates of your heart and labour only at what fills you with passion and significance. It is, we think, the best way for you to leave a lasting legacy.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;">From Public Mutual's vantage point, <i>Financial Freedom</i> is tightly intertwined to our branding as a Malaysia's leading private unit trust management company.
