Yes trustworthy. https://sunwaymoney.com/

The spread is better at about 40 basis points compared against interbank rate. But the execution is not immediate. They tend to delay the transaction to see if they can profit from FX movement in favour of them (against us). Usually the delay is one day (if transaction is done on weekday morning).

Their customer service is also quite good. If you mistype your bank account, they will help to rectify it by double checking with you and send it free of charge one day later.

Ever wonder how old Bloomberg terminal keyboards look like?



(The newest terminal keyboard is the all-black version in the lower left corner. Detailed description can be seen in page 15/18 of FT Life & Arts Part 2 PDF softcopy, link above.)

Enjoy your weekend.

1. For USD withdrawal from IBKR via Wise:



SGD withdrawal should follow a similar route.

---------------------------

2. Unfortunately, dealing with estate matters internationally is pretty cumbersome. Here is a recent info (as of Dec 2022) which explains the estate transfer matters:

https://forum.mustachianpost.com/t/interact...e-of-death/9441

A few advices:

- Open a joint account when you are old and transfer existing assets into the new joint account so that when you are not around the other account holder still have access to the assets.

- Add a Trusted Contact Party (TCP) so that IBKR can call him/her when they lose contact with you for quite some time.

- At the very least, inform your loved/trusted ones you have an international brokerage account at IBKR so that they know you have assets overseas. Ask them to contact IBKR when you are not around (or better still, if they already have opened an account at IBKR, a joint-account would help simplify matters).

- The estate transfer process may differ depending on which jurisdiction you open your account with (US/UK/SG/HK/AU etc.).

After nearly 4 months, the old IBKR UK account is finally closed.



----------------------

Aggregated Cost and Charges statement is available for IBKR UK accounts only. If you are using IBKR US (IBKR LLC) or IBKR Singapore, you won't see this statement.

I have shifted to IBKR LLC (US account), so I can't verify the issue for you, need to ask other members here who are still using IBKR UK to help verify. Sorry about that.
