Hi not sure right thread to ask : am acting on behalf of another party? My questions are

#1 If party want to sell off shares how do i know which broker/s are good/dependable?
#2 How long does the entire process take from intention to sell to getting funds credited to bank acct?
#3 Is there a standard brokerage commission/fee? If so how much?
#4 If party is old/bedridden/handicapped can authorize others to act on their behalf?

TIA to anyone who could assist me ya!

#1 - all brokerages in Singapore are good
#2 - 4 market days
#3 - depends on the amount, the fee are transparent, can easily Google
#4 - sign a third party authorisation forms

I applied for some rights issue and the shares show up in my CDP account but not my trading account portfolio. The trading account portfolio only shows stocks which I purchased. Is there any way to sync the 2, so the rights shares also show up in the portfolio?

Hi all,

I cant tahan the Poems quarterly custodian fee anymore, if I want to close it, can I just withdraw all the cash and leave it empty?
Or I still have to send a signed form all the way down from Kuala Lumpur?

Yours is what poems account type? How much they charge?

Hi, I'm currently very new here and have just been reading around. I've seen lots of people recommending to invest in ETFs as they are suitable for long term growth and lesser risk. I've looked online on Investopedia and apparently it states that Charles Schwab is the best website to open an account (schwab.com)

Would like to ask if anybody is also using that website or have any tips on investing in ETFs? Thank you in advance! :)

You can use Tiger Account, no CDP account required and registration can be done via the app. Easy and fast! It’s has commission-free trades when I signed up but not sure about now. You can google if interested. Hope this helps :)

You all don’t pm me anymore le, I Can’t Reciprocate. I didn’t reply to anyone to be fair.
Reason being:
To ask deeper one on one for more info, I don’t know who to trust with just a nick.
I only can put one referral.
Thank you.

Hi all, just wondering what are the cost n fees to buy shares using poems as realised the cash value dropped about $164 in a day n outstanding position is not paid yet. The brokerage fee is so much?
