Permodalan Nasional Bhd (PNB) may extend the period for subscribing the Amanah Saham 1Malaysia (AS1M) share trust units which has a December 31 deadline.
PNB Group Chief Executive and President, Tan Sri Hamad Kama Piah Che Othman, said the extension might be given as the allocated quota of units given according to the communities have not been taken up.
So far, 82 per cent of the quota given to the Chinese community has been subscribed, while another 20 per cent quota for Indian investors have been bought, and the units for Bumiputera meanwhile are largely still left.
Hamad Kama Piah said this when asked to comment on the latest development in the subscription of AS1M units, here Wednesday.
AS1M, a fixed price fund with a size of RM10 billion units, was launched on July 31 this year by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
It was opened to all Malaysians with an allocation of 50 per cent for Bumiputera, 30 per cent for the Chinese community, 15 per cent for the Indian community and five per cent for others.
Todate, a total of 2.96 billion units of the AS1M have been subscribed by 235,032 investors.
On the proposed multi-development project around the Stadium Negara and Stadium Merdeka, Hamad Kama Piah said the group was in the final stages of making a decision on the project.
