Banker In SCB Told Me Not To Open equity trading account

[ysksky]

Applied last week at clemeti branch, at first didn't aware of the requirement.. Denied to open trading account so I open e$aver account first.. Then the RM ask me to go to MAS website to do some test and no other info provided.. I was asking what test is it, he says just go MAS website I will find it..

but I can't find any test on MAS website.. so I did the SGX quiz instead. printed out the result then the RM help me fill up the form without any issue

Course: SGX Online Education
School: SGX academy

The RM said there is no reason application get rejected if you met the requirement, so i guess you don't need to worry about it.

Will be notified via letter, you can check at the scb ibanking trading tab too, if the trading tab open up, you can start trading already.

Apologies to bump this thread up

I tried the method as stated here. Even printed the SGX flyer and quiz results. However I was being turned away, saying that the only way is to perform 6 successful trades. Is there really a need to 'pay' $150 before I can open a trading account with SCB? Seeking for some advice please. Thanks a ton!

Just declare you traded 6 times in 3 years. It's just a declaration they won't check
