QUOTE(TSOM @ Feb 5 2016, 05:00 AM) I also want to open a bank account in SG with the lowest min balance with no annual fees. Any suggestion? For UOB, you are compulsory to do a unit trust investment or buy a prudential endowment plan with them in order to open a account if you do not have any working permit and SG prove of address.

QUOTE(aspenvit @ May 23 2016, 06:56 PM) *In Singapore now. Maximum cash to carry before need to declare is SGD 20,000. Tried to open trading account together with saving account at Standard Chartered Bank but rejected by that bank. Then I went to UOB, managed to open saving account after agreeing to take up Prudential insurance saving account of about 2% interest per annum, mature at 10 years. Saving account minimum balance SGD 1000, else charges of SGD 2 per month. Insurance premium minimum SGD 6670 per year for 5 years. Monthly premium payments accepted but that will attract a small administrative fee. Insurance pays you 5% of your capital paid plus refund your capital in the event of death. Which UOB branch did you went to? The product you buy is called PRUDRNTIAL PRU SAVE MAX LIMITED PAY?
