TQ. a very good infor.
let said I buy/sell 1g gold. Does it include the spread price of gold?
UOB has a low spread but I need alot of $$ to open the account. A minimum require 20g.
Is there any bank offer low minimum require?
u can buy 1g to open an gold investment account at Maybank.. but spread price higher than UOB
hmmm.. u need to see few things 1st:
1) how much cash u have for this gold investment? if u have RM3706 go UOB as has lowest spread price (UOB current selling price RM185.30, min investment 20g = RM3706), if u have RM1888.40 (Public Bank current selling price RM188.40) then u can go Public Bank, if u have only few hundreds then go Maybank ^^
2) u wan fast in fast out (short term investment)? (but honestly gold is a long term investment, once u invest better let it grow)? if for longer investment better go UOB due to its spread price
3) convenient = Public Bank can trade online anywhere during bank operation hours as long as u have public bank online banking (and public bank offer special price ie lower selling price if u trade / buy online), UOB & Maybank u need to go their branch to buy and sell
4) trustworthy of the trader = better go bank to invest gold as more trustworthy or to those well established one
above just my 0.02 cents

im not that pro in gold investment too just learning from the pro here
