Summary Rankings: Investments

Important Information 1) For the category "Best unit trusts and ILPs", STI-ETF ranked first followed by the CPF special and CPF ordinary accounts. 2) It is because of their low expenses (zero) and low risk (also zero), that CPF account returns exceeded that of funds on a risk- adjusted basis -- (i.e. when taking into consideration the higher risks of funds.)
