1 Mil will take 34 days by Wise cos max a day is 30k. Can use Wise, Instarem and Sunway Money for total 90k a day. Sunway money has better rate for SG, difference can be SGD30-40 per MYR30k

As long as you are using banks get ready to be charged extra markup by 2-3% for each transaction/conversation.
Only way is fintech then deposit into Interactive Broker and you can convert at market rate (even cheaper than fintech)

Thanks. But i dont quite understand your 2nd sentence:
Using Instarem or BigPay or Transferwise to transfer to IB?
What is even cheaper than fintech?

No use fintech to transfer to sg nank account. Then deposit SGD into interactive broker. From there convert using interactive broker. Interactive broker conversion rate is the lowest in town. No priority banking/fintech can beat their rates as they are giving you interbank rates. I don't think private bank also can get those rates. Cause the rates offer by Interactive broker is what the banks use to exchange currency among themselves.

You can convert millions and only pay USD2.00/conversion. That's it. No markup rates. No hidden fees. No extra fees.
