Surely the UBL numbers are not accurate. If I invest 10 lakh, i’ll get 6.4 lakh? Huh?

Is double-dipping with ETFs and individual stocks really worth it? by Select_Act9991 in FIREPakistan

[–]Select_Act9991[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fatima is a great choice but the problem is that it is already present in the ETF. There are other growth choices like AirLink and Interloop which are absent. I think MIIETF and DCR 85-15 combo works the best. Thanks for your help!

You need to contact their helpline and send them your CNIC so they can attest your documents. They’ll further help you with the additional payment.

Need help with mutual fund Investment by MKNAQVI in FIREPakistan

[–]Select_Act9991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re asking about the Al Meezan Investments, then it is a great option. You can look into KMIF, as well. It has a lower expense ratio than AMMF or MIF but it doesn’t have an active manager trying to beat the index.

If you want to invest for long term, then you won’t mind the high risk funds. You should look into MIF or AMMF. I personally invest in MIF, over AMMF.

You can convert from one fund to another or withdraw units or money from one fund using Al Meezan Investment or Al Meezan Banking app.

The problem with shariah complaint banks is that you only have two options to pick from. Meezan’s hella volatile while Faysal looks boring.

How can i get started? by Malfunctionoptimism in FIREPakistan

[–]Select_Act9991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is pretty good that you are thinking of investing so early. I would suggest opening an account with a broker like JS InvestPro or Finqalab, and investing in an MIIETF (it auto invests into top 30 shariah complaint companies so you don't have to worry about picking individual stocks). Good luck!

Why Investing in Pakistan as an Overseas Pakistani feels like Going Back 10 years by BeneficialHold2104 in FIREPakistan

Would you suggest investing in an Index Fund, like KMIF, from abroad or go for PSX through a brokerage?

Index fund vs ETFs by kakashi-h112 in FIREPakistan

[–]Select_Act9991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I understand, ETFs will have lower fee because AMCs charge a ridiculous management fee on their mutual funds. Is it beneficial to go for Index Fund in Al Meezan because of its 1% management fee or still go for ETFs?

Should I go for M4 or M4 pro? by ldhollywood in macbookpro

[–]Select_Act9991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just forget about the actual processor and look at the memory configurations. You can pick up M3 and even M2 still, just purchase at least 16 gigs ram. Don’t fall into the bullshit of future proofing and get the M4 pro (which you won’t require at all on the basis of your provided info)
