But I don't think the trading a/c name and bank a/c name here will be the same.

Let's say your name is Tan Boon Huat. Tan is your surname or last name. Boon Huat is your first name. In the online form, they ask you for "First Name" and "Last Name" so you type Tan as your last name and Boon Huat as your first name. Your name will appear as Boon Huat Tan. However, your local bank account shows that your name is Tan Boon Huat.

Since the order of the first name and last name differs, would there be a problem when it comes to the broker processing the withdrawal of funds?

Yes I TT my fund to my account.with them .
They will deposit in the trust accout with the bank there.
You don't have problem to TT less than RM100K per year if not have to get Bank Negara approval
The cost of TT is generally cheap and cleared the same day/ next day there.
To make sure you don't get taxed you must not have any US address and you have to fill in the declaration form.
To cash out I asked them to TT back the fund but your tarding a/c name and your bank a/c name here must be exactly the same.
Good Luck to you.

I don't think you will have problems if you fill in as you have mentioned.

No issue on last name (Surname) and First name , during buy/sell/transfer the money to/back on ETRADE, TRADEKING, UBS, as well as few local banks here. The trading / bank account number and SWIFT CODE are the
important information too.

Hi, I am looking to trade at NYSE. Any suggestion on which broker that is good? I tried Maybank, but the trading platform is lousy

there have been many threads where people ask about foreign bourses - singapore, usa ,etc., most of which goes unanswered.

maybe this thread should be pinned as there isn't one that has captured good info and links.

here are some the links i can remember, pls read them as there is some useful stuff:

Hello,

I believe that you are a remisier/broker representing Maybank.

I would like to know what is your commission for local stock trading?

CIMB iTrade is about 0.42% while Hong Leong is 0.1%.

If you can offer a competitive commission, please leave your contact or you may PM me.

bumped...


every week, somebody will ask in the us stocks thread "how to trade us stocks" or "is there a cheaper broker to trade foreign stocks".

there is no pinned thread or list of FAQ's on the subject.

but the info is available, bits and pieces spread over many threads.

these threads are probably most useful:
