“Enjoy Bonus Together” Program

When changing jobs or terminating employment, if the trustee does not receive terminating of member’s instructions for handling the MPF benefits in your contribution account within three months after receiving your former employer’s notice of terminating employment, your accrued benefits will automatically be transferred to a personal account under the scheme of your previous job, in which your MPF benefits will continue to be invested. If you are unaware of this arrangement, you may have a new personal account every time you change jobs. The simplest way to manage your multiple personal accounts more efficiently is to consolidate them.

With the implementation of MPF “Employee Choice Arrangement” (“ECA”), employees can have greater control over and more flexibility in their MPF accounts. As an employee, you can transfer all of your accrued benefits derived from the employee mandatory contributions during your current employment from a contribution account to a personal account under a MPF scheme of your own choice once every calendar year¹. You can henceforth reposition your MPF and plan for a better retirement life.

¹ Calendar year means the period from January 1 to December 31 in any given year.

Sun Life Rainbow MPF Scheme (the “Scheme”) offers 14 constituent funds with different categories*. The constituent fund categories include:

• Equity Fund (Global, Asia (ex-Japan), Hong Kong Index Tracking, Hong Kong and Greater China)
• Mixed Asset Fund (>20% - 40% Equity, >40% - 60% Equity and >60% - 80% Equity)
• Bond Fund (Global and Hong Kong)
• Money Market Fund (RMB and HKD)
• Default Investment Strategy (Core Accumulation Fund and Age 65 Plus Fund)
• MPF Conservative Fund

* The above fund categories are determined based on Lipper’s Hong Kong Pension Fund Classification.

If you do not want the burden of managing your investment portfolio on a regular basis, you can consider joining Fund Cruiser. This program adopts a pre-determined asset allocation method², which automatically rebalances your MPF portfolio every year according to your age on your birthday³. The risk level of the portfolio will therefore shift from high to low gradually as you get closer to your retirement.

Note: Members should note that the pre-determined asset allocation under “Fund Cruiser” is a standard arrangement only and does not constitute any investment advice to individual members. The arrangement does not take into account factors other than age, which members may also need to consider, such as their investment objectives, financial needs, risk tolerance, market and economic situations.

In addition, you may consider choosing Default Investment Strategy (“DIS”). The DIS is not a fund - it is a strategy that uses two constituent funds, namely the Core Accumulation Fund and the Age 65 Plus Fund (collectively the “DIS CFs”) to automatically reduce members’ risk exposure as member’s approach their retirement age through investing in the DIS CFs according to the pre-set allocation percentages specified by law.

Note: Members should note that the DIS adopts pre-determined asset allocation and automatically adjusts asset allocation based only upon a member’s age. The DIS does not take into account factors other than age, such as market and economic conditions nor member’s personal circumstances including investment objectives, financial needs, risk tolerance or likely retirement date. Members who want their MPF portfolio to reflect their own personal circumstances can make their own selection of funds from the range available in the Scheme.

For more details of the constituent funds, Fund Cruiser and DIS under Sun Life Rainbow MPF Scheme, please refer to the MPF Scheme Brochure of the Scheme.

² For more details of asset allocation of Fund Cruiser, please refer to the MPF Scheme Brochure of the Scheme.

³ If the member’s birthday falls on a non-business day, the MPF portfolio will be rebalanced on the first business day after the birthday.

Investment involves risks and past performance is not indicative of future performance. Investment return may rise as well as fall due to market condition and currency movement which may affect the value of investments. The value of units may vary due to changes in exchange rates between currencies. Emerging markets may involve a higher degree of risk than in developed markets and are usually more sensitive to price movements.

The return of Sun Life MPF RMB and HKD Fund may be adversely affected by movements in RMB exchange rates as well as foreign exchange controls and repatriation restrictions imposed by the Chinese government as the fund invests part of its assets in RMB denominated money market and debt instruments
