Bangkok--Dec 20--SET
Twelve asset management companies take their staff’s troops to present to investors information on long-term equity funds (LTF) and retirement mutual funds (RMF) in the “Last Chance for Tax Reduction Via LTF-RMF” Fair. The fair will be held December 17 —19, 10:00 — 19:00 hrs., at the SET Building.
The SET President, Mr. Kittiratt Na-Ranong, said at the opening of the “Last Chance for Tax Reduction Via LTF-RMF” Fair today (Dec.17) that investors can study the information and select the funds best suited to their needs from the 57 funds represented at this fair. Investment in the funds can be made on the spot with only a THB2,000 initial investment.
“The “Last Chance for Tax Reduction Via LTF-RMF” Fair is taking place at the right time since income earners can now estimate their income and plan their allocations. The LTFs and RMFs are worth investing in as they are a way to save for the future. It doesn’t matter whether the stock market is up or down, investors in these funds will still benefit from tax-saving privileges
Investment in each LTF or RMF is tax deductible but must be no more than 15% of an investor’s total income. If a person invests in both an LTF and a RMF, he/she can enjoy the maximum of THB600,000 in tax deductions,” Mr. Kittiratt said.
