I may go Singapore UOB to open.

1 thing, SC dont use CDP for trading acc. they hold ur stock in custodian acc. thats why their fee is lower.

----
if u still wan to open sc saving acc + trading acc with them

esaver is the basic saving acc they offer. have to keep $1k in acc to avoid the $5 fall below fee.
but im not sure whether u can open or not. check the requirement https://www.sc.com/sg/save/saving-esaver.html

if u manage to open the acc, just tell them u wan to apply for the online trading acc as well. the cs will help u to apply.
they will ask some question like do u invest before, etc.  :thumbsup:

im sorry im not qualify to suggest u any yet. im just starting my journey as well.
sc charge 0.2% rate at $10 minimum fee
but even malaysia brokers allow investment into SG ma not meh.
is the cost much higher if compare to SG brokers?

Open a trading acx first in Sg.

Btw are u working in Sg? If yes will be more easier.

Sg has tighten d rules for us to get a trading acc.

Try to email or call the bank n enquire for more info on trading acc.

I will help you.
1. Not all Maybanks can do this. You need to find the selected branches. Where to find? It's in the iSavvy forms which you can download from the internet. Keep in mind there's branch for normal people and Priority banking branch. Go to the correct branch.

2. Requirements? It's listed in the pdf form. You cannot transfer straight away. You will need to get a bank draft in SGD under your name from Maybank MY. Fill up the form, drop by at the selected branch, tell them you want to open iSavvy account and they will do the rest. According to Maybank MY page, opening now need SGD5k but last I heard from Maybank SG, min is still SGD500. Don't forget your FACTA forms + income tax proof. Where to get the FACTA forms? You need to email Maybank SG for the forms.

3. Of course can. Unless you are related to xdb or you are dealing in drugs/weapons/human trafficking  Keep in mind every time you transfer back and forth you will lose money. If done frequently, better your money stay in Malaysia. So think and plan carefully before you decide to move money over there 

4. After sending over, wait one month, call them up and ask status of application. There will be no SMS/email/calls saying that your application is approved. You need to manually find out yourself.

Btw, all these info are available in this thread. Just browse all the previous post.
