ASNB Declares RM896 Mln Income Distribution For ASM 3

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 29 (Bernama) -- Amanah Saham Nasional Bhd (ASNB), a wholly-owned unit trust company of Permodalan Nasional Bhd (PNB), has declared an income distribution of RM896.01 million for its fixed price fund, Amanah Saham Malaysia 3 (ASM 3), for the financial year ending Sept 30, 2025.

The income distribution is set to benefit 717,446 ASM 3 unitholders who collectively hold 19.16 billion units.

In a statement today, PNB said the income distribution of 4.75 sen per unit reflects the fund’s ability to sustain its dividend at the same level as the previous financial year, reinforcing investors’ confidence in its performance and stability.

It added that the fund outperformed its benchmark Maybank 12-Month Fixed Deposit return of 2.40 per cent by 235 basis points for the financial year to-date, up to Sept 24, 2025.

“This strong result stands out amid a challenging domestic market, with the FBMKLCI still negative year-to-date. Despite market volatility, ASM 3 remained resilient and delivered consistent returns, reinforcing its strength in uncertain conditions.

“The income for ASM 3 is derived from realised gains, dividend income and other sources of income from both domestic and international investments,” PNB said.

It said ASM 3 has delivered commendable gains for unitholders this financial year, reflecting the strength of PNB’s disciplined investment approach and long-term strategy.

The fund’s performance is supported by continued asset diversification, with increased exposure to fixed income instruments that provide stability and consistent returns.

The income distribution for ASM 3, computed based on the average minimum monthly balance held throughout the fund's financial year, will be automatically reinvested as additional units into unitholders’ accounts on Oct 1, 2025.

Meanwhile, transactions for ASM 3 at ASNB branches and agents, including all online channels and internet banking, have been temporarily suspended from Sept 28-30, 2025.

Unitholders may resume transactions at myASNB portal (www.myasnb.com.my), or via myASNB mobile application, or at any ASNB branches or its agents nationwide starting Oct 1, 2025.
