Q. What is Al-Syamil Facility
The Al-Syamil Facility is a Facility where AmMutual groups our various Islamic unit trust funds under one umbrella¹. The Facility allows you to switch between all the Islamic funds under AmMutual. Currently, they comprise:
    AmAl-Amin - Islamic short term debt securities fund
    AmBon Islam - Islamic bond fund
    AmIslamic Balanced - Islamic Balanced fund
    AmIttikal - Islamic equity fund
    AmIslamic Growth - Islamic equity growth fund
    AmOasis Global Islamic Equity - Global Islamic equity capital growth fund

You may choose to create your own portfolio by investing in one or a composite of funds (subject to the minimum investment amount requirement of the respective fund). Subsequently, you may wish to switch between funds in your portfolio according to the changes in your investment requirements and market cycles (subject to 30-day interval between each switch and a minimum amount of RM1,000).

¹You may invest in these Islamic funds separately if you wish to do so, subject to terms and conditions mentioned in the AmMutual Master Prospectus.
 
Q. What benefits do I get by joining the Facility?
The benefits are numerous:
    Convenience, flexibility and cost savings in the long run (one-time entry fee upon joining and no switching fee)
    Caters to increasingly sophisticated and well-informed investors who are capable of determining your own asset allocation (either passively or actively as advised by our fund manager);
    Allows you to change your composite exposure and take advantage of future market volatility and different market cycles as advised by our Fund Manager;
    Consolidated statements on a quarterly basis (compared to half-yearly for AmIttikal);
    Quarterly newsletter (members only); and
    Special promotions and events.
 
Q. What are the costs involved?
You pay a one-off 6% of the net asset value (NAV) per unit of the fund(s) invested as the joining fee only.
 
Q. Please elaborate
You pay a 6% of the NAV per unit of the fund(s) invested as joining fee to become a member of the Al-Syamil Facility. Then as a member, you are free to invest in the various Islamic funds under the Facility. Your portfolio choice can be in any combination, or you can concentrate in one or two funds as you please.



You may also opt to switch out of the funds in the Facility to one of our conventional funds. Under such circumstances, terms and conditions of the AmMutual Master Prospectus are applicable. Should you opt to enter the Facility again, you are required to pay the joining fee for the second time.

Existing AmIttikal investors may opt for the Facility now without any joining fee.
 
Q. Who is Al-Syamil Facility suitable for?
It is for the discerning investor who chooses to invest financially for the long term. You are free to perform your own asset allocation and reposition your portfolio from time to time, depending on changing investment needs and market cycles.
 
Q. Who manages the Funds?
The Funds are managed by professional fund managers of AmMutual.
 
Q. Who will advise me about my portfolio?
Client Service - You will be serviced by our Consultant from whom you bought the membership. Quarterly statements will be sent to you stating your portfolio holding in the respective funds.

Market Outlook - A quarterly newsletter with current topics of interest and market outlook will be provided along with the fund manager's strategy for each fund. The fund manager will provide the information and will share our house views on investments and financial market with you.
 
Q. Can I leave the Facility?
You can leave the Facility at any time by withdrawing your funds in full from the Facility.
