Frequently Asked Questions
1. How can I enroll in the SB UITF-RSP?
The RSP Enrollment Form may be downloaded from the corporate website here. You may also visit your SBC branch of account and request for an RSP enrollment form. Fill out the form, affix your signature and submit to the designated UITF Sales Person or Branch Customer Advisor.
2. Can I nominate another deposit account where the scheduled subscription will be debited?
Your scheduled top-ups will only be debited from your SB UITF’s designated settlement account.
3. Can I immediately enroll in RSP upon account opening?
Yes. You just need to accomplish the RSP enrollment form in the UITF Account Opening Kit.
4. What will happen to my scheduled top-up if my CASA is insufficiently funded?
The scheduled top-up will not push through. The next subscription will be attempted on the next scheduled top-up date. No penalty charges will be deducted to your account on failed subscriptions.
5. Will I be notified of each RSP subscription?
Yes. Confirmation of Participation (COP) will be issued via email every successful top-up/subscription (same process with manual top-ups).
6. What will trigger the automatic cancellation of my RSP enrollment?
If your CASA is unfunded/ insufficiently funded for 5 consecutive scheduled subscription dates.
7. How can an investor compare the performance of the trustee versus other trust entities?
All trust entities offering UITF products are required to publish the fund’s prevailing NAVPU as well as the year-on-year and the year-to-date return on investment in major dailies at least once a week. The investor should, however, compare performance of products with similar investment parameters for a more objective evaluation.
8. What will happen if my scheduled subscription date falls on a holiday, weekend, or non-banking day?
Your CASA will be debited on the immediately next banking day. For example:
RSP Date: May 30 – Holiday; debit will be on June 1.
