"Monthly Funds Savings Plan" is a flexible and convenient investment tool that provides the advantage of "Dollar Cost Averaging". In this way, you don't have to worry about short term volatility in the markets. Instead, you can benefit from the growth potential of the funds in the long run. The earlier you start your savings plan, the sooner you can achieve your financial goals.
Low contribution amount
With a monthly contribution as low as HKD1,000, you can start your investment plan with ease.

Before making any investment decision, customers should assess their own financial position, investment objectives and experience, willingness and ability to bear risks and understand the nature and risk of the relevant product. For details of the nature of a particular product and the risk involved, please refer to the relevant offering documents. Customers should seek advice from an independent financial adviser.
Although investment may bring about profit opportunities, each type of investment product or service comes with its own risks. Due to the fluctuating nature of the markets, the prices of products may rise or fall beyond customers' expectations and customers' investment funds may increase or decrease in value as a result of selling or purchasing investment products.

Below investment grade securities may be considered speculative and can include securities that are unrated or in default. As a result, investment in those Investment Funds is subject to a higher degree of credit risk than investment in higher rated, lower yielding securities.
