Hi anon,

You really shouldn't be paying sales charges for any UTs via CPF IS.

Charges borne by you will generally come from the banks, and depend on what asset you are investing in.

You may wish to invest through a CPF Investment adminstrator such as Phillip Securiteis, which will allow you to consolidate your investments and reduce charges from the banks.
