At your present age, probably they do not allow trading of overseas markets. But, from here, from 21 onwards you probably could. More info here on SIPs.

I think there are OCBC staff roaming the pages here. Hopefully they could come out and clarify.

Amendment - you might have to chance to trade overseas, as they are considered EIPs than SIPs.

Ocbc has access for foreign market

Just that because you are between 18 and 21, it just mean you need to have deposit before you can have any sort of buy limit

i look at the ocbc blue chip investment plan like you can only choose from their 30 component in STI. dont even have access to those smaller caps ipos

Yes ok. After I open 1. How then to I transfer usd into the acc w/o using the sgd to usd bank currency spread? Any other ways to deposit usd directly?

if you have USD then go down to the bank and deposit.

actually whats the difference? if you hold USD and assuming your base currency is SGD, you are exposed to the FX risk of holding that USD.
