KUALA LUMPUR, 11 September 2025 - PMB Investment Berhad (PMB Investment) is pleased to announce that both the PMB Shariah Premier Fund and PMB Shariah Equity Fund have declared annual distributions of 2.00 sen per unit for the financial year ended 31 August 2025 and 30 August 2025, respectively, underscoring PMB Investment’s commitment to consistent value creation for its investors.
The PMB Shariah Premier Fund achieved an impressive 5.26% yield with a total gross distribution of RM4.85 million. The fund's Net Asset Value (NAV) will adjust from RM0.4048 to RM0.3848 following the distribution, with the ex-date on 29 August 2025 and the reinvestment date on 2nd September 2025.
The PMB Shariah Equity Fund delivered a 3.37% yield with a total gross distribution of RM6.41 million. The fund's NAV will move from RM0.6364 to RM0.6164 post-distribution, sharing the same ex-date of 29 August 2025 and reinvestment date of 2 September 2025.
En. Hang Tuah Amin Tajudin, Chief Executive Officer of PMB Investment, stated, “These distributions reflect our disciplined investment approach and strong fund performance. The PMB Shariah Premier Fund has delivered a three-year cumulative return of 37.57%, or 12.52% average annually as of 31 August 2025, with today's 5.26% yield. Our PMB Shariah Equity Fund achieved 62.29% cumulative returns (20.76% average annually) with a 3.37% yield. We remain optimistic about Shariah-compliant investment opportunities and our research capabilities to deliver sustained value for our unitholders.”
Launched in 1972, PMB Shariah Premier Fund is PMB Investment’s twelfth fund and aims to achieve capital growth over the medium to long term by investing in any of the 50 largest Shariah-compliant stocks by market capitalisation (at the time of purchase) listed on the Bursa Malaysia. Meanwhile, PMB Shariah Equity Fund was launched in 1995, specifically for Tenaga National employees, before being opened to the public in 2022. Under normal circumstances, both Funds allocate between 70% and 99.5% respectively, of their NAV to Shariah-compliant equities and equity-related securities. The remaining portion is invested in Islamic money market instruments, Islamic deposit placements, sukuk, and other Shariah-compliant permitted investments.
"These distributions show that investors don't have to choose between their values and returns. Our Shariah funds prove you can stay true to Islamic principles while building real wealth. The total RM11.26 million in distributions reflects strong portfolio management and careful selection of Shariah-compliant investments throughout the financial year. Both funds maintained strict adherence to Islamic investment principles while delivering competitive returns to unitholders," informed Datuk Mohd Idzwan Izuddin Ab Rahman, Chairman of PMB Investment.
