I prefer to invest in global equities. It offers better diversification. The fund manager is able to pick the best investments from a larger pool. The manager is not restricted to only the stocks from a specific country, i.e. Singapore. The statistics over the past 10 to 20 years showed that the Singapore equities are more volatile and earned a lower averge return, compared to global equities. As the world is now more globalised, it is better to be invested in global equities.
