Possible to invest in mutual funds or UITFs while abroad?
August 6, 2007
Several Pinoys outside the Philippines, especially Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs), are wondering whether they can invest in mutual funds or unit investment trust funds (UITF) even if they are outside the country.
A few PMT members are reporting that it is indeed possible. Some mutual fund companies or banks offering UITFs, they say, accommodate placements although the investor cannot make a personal appearance.Â

If you are a representative of a bank or mutual fund company and have information about investing while outside the Philippines, post below or in the above thread so that OFWs interested to invest can know what to do.
Best Performing Philippine Equity Mutual Funds (as of June 2007)
July 27, 2007
Note: When analyzing mutual funds, you should not simply look at the NAVPS or Net Asset Value per Share. This number does not necessarily show whether the fund is performing well or not, but the change of the NAVPS over time does. Never assume that a fund with high NAVPS means it is generating high returns. You need to look at actual returns of the fund over a certain time period. But then again, be reminded that past performance is and will never be a guarantee of future results.
