Thanks for the information! I wanted to open an account with RM 8 or 0.10% brokerage fees. I guess I went to the wrong branch lol
Do you know is it possible for me to open another account at MBB EIC? Meaning I will have 2 trading accounts under Maybank?
Yes you can, provided that it is not the same type of CDS (i.e. Direct and Direct).
Note that any 1 individual can only have 1 Direct CDS opened with Maybank (regardless of MBB IB or MBB EIC) at the same time. Otherwise, you can have both Nominee and Direct CDS account opened with Maybank. I'm currently holding these 2, but I only use the Direct CDS.
No worries tho. Been there, made the same mistake. Just spread the word for any future forumers or your friends

haha

I have Nominee account now, and I want to move my portfolio from Nominee to Direct CDS account (after I opened Direct CDS account). How to yeah?
1. Open the New Direct CDS with New Broker
2. Once done, tell your new broker to provide you the information for share transfer from your Old Nominee CDS
3. Approach your Old Broker to request for transfer, sign up a few forms, pay RM10/company share if not mistaken, and the rest will be dealt by your Old Broker.
4. Wait and should be done within 1-2 working days.
Alternatively (depending on broker), if you opened your New Direct CDS, ask your New Broker speak with your Old Broker to facilitate the transfer for you, without you doing anything except paying the RM10/stock fee.
Hope this helps.
