Maybank SG, Fidelity International launch multi-asset fund

The fund is offered in three asset classes and will be made available in Q3 2024.

Maybank Singapore and Fidelity International have jointly launched ‘FAST - Maybank Alpha Capital & Income Opportunities Fund’, a multi-asset fund that offers three share classes– accumulation, income, and decumulation– to meet different investment goals. 

Investors who choose the Accumulation (Grow) asset class will are promised long-term capital growth by reinvesting dividends to leverage the power of compounding.  

Meanwhile, the Income (Sustain) asset class seeks to offer a regular monthly dividend stream; whilst the Decumulation (Stretch) asset class will look into maximising the income payout to fund investor’s retirement needs with a regular monthly dividend stream. 

The fund is exclusively distributed by Maybank Singapore and will be available in Malaysia via Maybank Asset Management in Q3 2024.
