Hey Guys, for IBKR it doesn't charge Inactiviy fees anymore?
https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=4969

If we trade US stocks it will be under Individual Account right?

Also the Fees are minimum USD1 , max 1% of trade value?

Removal of inactivity fee is old news, happened months ago. You open account under your name, then it's your individual account.

For US equity markets, if you use tiered pricing structure, then it's 0.35 USD minimum, 0.0035 USD per share, max 1% of trade value.

Ahh I see...then the tiered is much better than fix right, why would anyone want to select fix then

Guys , anybody recently just open CIMB SG?


For the SGD1,000. The banker from SG called me and say must transfer via their direct transfer from cimb clicks and not WISE or other 3rd party platform..


Can i just transfer like a few ringgit then transfer SGD1,000 from WISE?

Their rates so much difference from WISE

Cimb: 3.118
Wise: 3.085 (after Fees)

That is in fact what I did. I even funded my CIMB SG account before I could access its internet banking haha. They just called me (as part of the verification process) to say please transfer something like 1sgd via CIMB MY.
Note: look at final amount you get, not the transfer rate, because then you would also take account of the transaction fee.

Nice, maybe I would do that and pray that the banker doesn't call to scold me haha...

Yeah I was talking about the final amount. For 1000SGD
CIMB FAST was: 3118
While WISE is : 3085+

That's 2 Starbucks difference 🤭

they didn't give fees discount as promised for those that sign up from referral code as well.

What's happening with Wise? I've previously done a content and I clearly remembered its USD 0.39, unfortunately i didn't link up the article regarding the fees of USD 0.39. It seems like they removed it?

I'm uploading both image here for comparison. One was done 3rd April 2023, and another was 30th July 2024
