Must have more than one bank acct and one brokerage acct in SG.

I am more interested to know why his account was flagged and subsequently close. Banks don't just simply close account.

Could be because he didn't reply to emails from CIMB requestion for clarification or sourced of money. After account close proceed to use sister account for same transaction. Hence got flagged as well.

Banks will close a customer's account when they are suspected for doing illegal activities or having suspicious fund movement.

They will not inform the customer reason for closure but they do have the records to substantiate it to the regulator if need be.

Also long as got proof where the money come from when asked by banks, no issue. Personal experience. CIMB sg asked me for proof of transaction and where the money came from because of my inward remittance using Sunway money. Send them everything and more and problem settle.

With how many overseas transactions per month?
How many of those transactions are inward transactions?
