Monthly Investment Plan

Unsure of when to invest in times of uncertainty?

The OCBC Monthly Investment Plan can help. Through regular investment intervals and amounts in a select unit trust of choice, you can take advantage of Dollar Cost Averaging, which helps remove some of the uncertainty involved in trying to time the market and smooth out market volatility.

Also, instead of investing a large lump sum up front, smaller monthly contributions make it easier to set aside a portion of your savings and get an early head start.

This plan offers a choice of either "Class A" or "Class B" unit trust investments. "Class A" investments incur regular upfront charges but "Class B" investments feature the removal of front-end sales charges, so every dollar of your money will be fully invested from day one. However, "Class B" unit trust investments are subject to contingent deferred sales charge and distribution fee. For details, please refer to the prospectus.
