PNB offers registration fee discount for estate planning services
KUALA LUMPUR: Amanah Saham Nasional Bhd (ASNB) is offering a registration fee discount of RM100 (inclusive of Goods and Services Tax) to investors for its unit trust-related estate planning services, Hibah Amanah and Pengisytiharan Amanah, from now until Nov 30.
The normal fee is RM180 (excluding GST).
Chief executive officer and executive director, Mohammad Hussin said the special three-month offer was aimed at encouraging unitholders to subscribe to both services and manage their estate in the form of ASNB unit trusts.
“Proper estate inheritance planning can help avoid problems after the demise of the unitholders, such as having their assets frozen and beneficiaries being unable to reach an agreement on distribution or other issues.
“Beneficiaries often seek to liquidate the deceased unitholders’ cash investment in ASNB unit trusts to support them, while waiting for the distribution of other assets,” he said in a statement yesterday. — Bernama
