A unit trust (or “mutual fund”, as the wacky Americans call it) is a fund where multiple investors pool their money. A fund manager takes that pool and channels it into a whole bunch of different investments. Okay, I know. That made absolutely no sense. Let me try to unpack it into 3 main points:
Although you don’t need a lot to start investing – some banks let you start with just $100 a month – unit trusts are ultimately costly to invest in because there are many fees involved. Here are the fees you might need to pay personally (usually taken as a cut off your investment amount so you don’t feel the pinch): That’s not all! There are also o...
Unlike simpler forms of investment, like buying Singapore Savings Bondsor shares in your favourite telco company, it’s a little harder to make a decision when it comes to unit trusts. For a start, there are a gazillion of them out there, and they all have incomprehensible names like “AB SICAV I Low Volatility Eq A SGD H Acc”. So what do you look ou...
Practically every Singaporean has a DBS/POSB bank account, which is already half the battle won (for DBS, anyway) as you can easily invest in unit trusts through DBS iBanking. Finding the right unit trust among its 500+ investment fund optionsis the difficult bit. For beginners, you can narrow it down by filtering by currency (choose SGD to avoid f...
Similar to DBS, OCBC offers unit trust investmentswith low barriers to entry – you just need to set up an OCBC online banking account or get one opened instantly at an OCBC branch. You can look at the complete list of OCBC unit trusts here. There’s also a page of OCBC-selected funds, which would certainly help narrow things down, but you still need...
UOB’s unit trust pageis helpfully divided into subcategories (based on geography and asset mix) so you can easily zoom in on the ones that interest you. The 6 categories are: You can also use the fund selector page to filter by fund house, asset type, geography and investment scheme (e.g. CPFIS, SRS). Similar to the other local banks, you can inves...
Apart from the 3 local banks, you might also want to consider investing with POEMS because there are supposedly no fees (platform, sales or switching fees) when you purchase online or “port in” your existing unit trust. These are only the fees you need to pay personally though – the other collective fund fees, such as your fund manager’s pay cheque...
Another non-bank platform for investments in Singapore is FundSupermart’s FSMOne, which is exactly what it sounds like: A “supermarket” with a huge variety of unit trusts (close to 1,500!) as well as a ton of ETFs, bonds and stocks to choose from. The sheer variety of options can be staggering, but there are FundSupermart investment advisorsto help...
An alternative platform that’s solely focused on unit trusts, DollarDex may seem like a much smaller outfit that the rest but it does have some credentials: Its parent company was formerly the insurance firm Aviva, now known as Singlife with Aviva. It’s regulated by MAS, and it’s registered as an CPFIS investment broker. Again, DollarDex focuses on...

Aug 1, 2023 · Another key difference is that the price for a unit trust is based on the NAV per unit, while the price for stocks is determined by the market. Lastly, unit trusts are usually set up with trustees and managed by fund managers, while stocks can be bought and sold through a stockbroker.
The price of each unit is based on the fund’s net asset value (NAV) divided by the number of units outstanding. The NAV of a fund is the market value of the fund’s net assets (investments, cash and other assets minus expenses, payables and other liabilities.)
