Same case.for FSM SG if you want to trade Specified Investment Product ( SIP) such as ETFs . FSM put big big saying they won't ask for prove for the questionnaire to allow you to trade SIP but it is regulation

No. If MYR weakening once you have invested, you will gain more . But if you want to invest after USD strengthen, then you will need more RM to get 1 USD

Your holding already in USD, unless you dive into each etf and see what it comprises, but I think should be mostly USD . You can go through the etf factsheet and see how much is non USD and share with us !

Submitted mine through website. Haven't dealt with them using WhatsApp before

Of course there will currency risk, i would say USD more stable than MYR . Give and take. For example, i bought US shares many years ago when 1 USD = 3.8 MYR . Now if i change back , will make quite abit just on forex gains. It could be the other way round as well. Thats why must hedge properly according to your portfolio and risk appetite.

Maybe it depend on how strong the RM is against USD on a daily basis. You can try observe the USD just for portfolio performance, and then monitor the rate of MYR/USD and try compare against USD returns and MYR returns.

As i said last time, If you bought already, then when USD rally, technically you gain lots from forex. It really depends on your entry If you think MYR going to increase, best just invest locally .

I totally agree, my singapore and us portfolio > more than malaysia holdings now as well. Been slowly building up since last time.

Yes, thats why i like it alot, seems to be quite a reasonable charge (max 0.8%) to grant us access to ETF's easily.

The last time i check, the forex rate was reasonable as well

You transfer 1k to them, they will convert it and buy according to your risk profile.

Found this on their FAQ.

Even in a bankruptcy event, funds held in a trust or custodian account cannot be touched, as they belong to the customer – not to StashAway.

Yes they will show you under assets

If i am not mistaken when market open the day after currency conversion. I THINK.

Anyone with a more detailed answer ?

I am waiting feedback from their side as my converted funds still not yet utilized for any ETFs. Never had a problem before this.

Mine -7% since 9th November, topping up every week as well , risk index 36

-11.4 on 36

Yeah, doesnt really concern me. Stashaway feels like a fun account to top up small amounts.

We will see whether time in the market really beats timing the market

most people (including you) will always believe it can further go down, so will wait one extra day, one extra week, one extra month.

I am not saying it won't go down or will go up, but of course if we all knew 100% that it will go down, the markets won't be markets.

But yes, invest only as much as you can as long as it doesn't you trouble you at night

No one forcing other people to buy here leh. Same can be construed with you asking people to stay out. Everyone here is expected to do their own due diligence and let's say if stashaway close shop(worst case scenario, 100% loss). We got no one else to blame except ourselves.

We are all here cause we all share the interest of making money and sharing feedback regarding different avenues/platform

Hahaha ! Joking joking ! Just using case in point , invest with what you are willing to lose. Want to say market go to zero cannot ma

Totally agreed. I really looking for a Malaysia ETF but the one in our local stock exchange so low volume. Only EWM in NYSE.

Really depends on your risk appetite!
