The PLCP account has
the following distinctive features:
1. No transaction costs

no switching fee for the 3 Phillip asset-class funds

2. Personal manager

funds in the Phillip Growth Fund, Phillip Income
Fund and Phillip Money Market Fund in his PLCP account.

3. Comprises top-ranking
asset class funds - Both the Phillip Income Fund
and the Phillip Growth Fund are ranked number one
by Standard & Poor’s Fund Services over
the period 31 December 2002 to 30 September 2003
in their respective fund categories; namely ‘Asset
Allocation Global Defensive, Singapore Unit Trusts’
and ‘Asset Allocation Global Neutral, Singapore
Unit Trusts’. They were ranked number one
and two respectively, by Standard & Poor’s
Fund Services in 2002*
4. Consistent, low
volatile returns - Asset allocation is the process
of determining optimal allocations for the various
classes of assets ( such as money markets, bonds,
equities, currencies etc ) that meet your investment
time horizon and risk tolerance. Asset allocation
serves to mitigate the excessive volatility seen
in single asset-class funds and achieve consistent
total returns in the medium to long term on an investment
portfolio. Through the judicious application of
asset allocation, we were able to achieve consistent
low volatile returns.
