Otherwise, watch a video tutorial on the power of compounding.

I recommend you reinvest the interest earned so as to maximize the power of compound interest.

You should also invest for a long period to allow compounding to grow your money.

At the very least, plan to invest for at least an year in the CIC Money Market Fund.

You can start off with a money market fund and then diversify to the other CIC unit trusts that are riskier but could potentially offer higher returns.

The other CIC Asset Management Limited unit trusts available are:

  • CIC Wealth Fund
  • CIC Fixed Income Fund
  • CIC Equity Fund
  • CIC Balanced Fund

Income earned by the CIC Money Market Fund is tax exempt.

This allows it to pass on the benefits to its unitholders in form of higher returns.

Further, the underlying investments compound tax free.

However, interest accrued to the individual is taxed at a preferential rate of 15% withholding tax.

This is also a final tax i.e. you won’t pay any other tax on the interest earned from CIC MMF.
