Start saving early
Many procrastinate on starting a retirement fund thinking there is still a long way to go to retirement age. However,
they fail to realise the effects of inflation on their retirement funds. To ensure you have enough time to build a
stress-free retirement, here are some reasons you should start saving while you are young.
• Financial independence – As the saying goes, “Sikit-sikit lama-lama jadi bukit.” When it comes to investing your
savings, the earlier you start, the greater the accumulated returns on your original investment thanks to
compound yield. By investing consistently and regularly, you will be able to secure yourself a comfortable
retirement without having to depend on others. Work towards accumulating enough to cover the cost of your basic
necessities, lifestyle expenses and occasional splurge on luxuries.
• Saving is a good habit to develop – If you start saving for your future from a younger age, you will find that it
becomes second nature. It will be easier to put aside some money for retirement. It helps to start with small
amounts, especially for young adults who are just entering the workforce, so it is not as overwhelming. How you
manage your paycheck will determine how you save for the rest of your earning years. A person who is used to
saving on a monthly basis will find it easier to set aside 10% of her salary for retirement as opposed to an
individual who is not used to spending her money prudently.

• Gain control over your future – When you set aside money for your retirement, remember that you are shaping
your future.
This is a task no one else will perform for you or push you to do. By saving consistently, you are ensuring that you
are well prepared for any outcome when you leave the workforce. With sufficient savings, you will most likely be
able to live your dream lifestyle even during your retirement years – promising you the peace of mind of a secure
financial future.
Steps to successful retirement planning
• Building a substantial sum for your retirement nest egg can be easy and painless if you start investing early
and regularly. Public Mutual’s Direct Debit Authorisation facility allows you to invest regularly while employing
the Ringgit Cost Averaging strategy.
• Not only that, you can enjoy tax relief of up to RM3,000 per annum if you contribute to the Private Retirement
Scheme (PRS) fund. PRS contributions are creditor-protected. Public Mutual’s PRS contributors can also enjoy a
free insurance or Takaful coverage of up to RM100,000, subject to terms and conditions.
• To cater to diversified investors’ needs and investment objectives, Public Mutual offers six PRS core funds and
three non-core funds, which make a great pool of funds for investors to choose from.
• Young investors who have long-term investment horizons can consider investing in PRS non-core funds, which
can yield better potential returns in the long term.
