Malaysia’s EPF ends 2020 up 7.9% at almost $250 billion
Bloomberg
Malaysia's Employees Provident Fund posted record gross investment gains in 2020, lifting the value of its portfolio to 1 trillion ringgit ($247.5 billion) as of Dec. 31.
The Kuala Lumpur-based EPF made those advances despite granting participants early access to their retirement savings to help them survive the economic devastation of the coronavirus crisis.
A Feb. 27 announcement by the national defined contribution system said it had credited a 5.2% dividend payout to the accounts of its 13.8 million "conventional" plan participants, down from 5.45% the year before. It was the lowest level since the 4.5% pay out for 2008, the year of the global financial crisis.
