that's cheaper than SCB!! isn't it?

Do they have inactive fees like Interactive Broker, or any annual charges?

I know SCB is very straight forward. Let say I buy USD500 worth of share A. SCB will charge me the 0.25% of USD 500 + conversion fees from SGD to USD.

is FSMONE similar, charging 0.08% of USD 500 and their conversion fees from SGD to USD?
ya, can say cheaper. no inactive fees or annual charges. for each buy and sell order it will be 0.08% minimum USD 8.80 for US stocks.

they will charge dividend handling fee of 1% of gross dividend subject to minimum USD 2.50, maximum USD 25. SCB don't charge for dividend handling. so you have to do some calculation and see which one is more worthwhile.

can you show some examples on the cost for dividend handling?

in the context of US stocks:

if your dividend is $100, 1% is $1 = you get $0, because minimum $2.50 is applicable

if your dividend is $1000, 1% is $10 = you get $0, because 1% handling fee is applicable

if your dividend is $10000, 1% is $100 = you get $75, because maximum $25 is applicable

I think the example is not right...

If a company declare $1 dividends per share and you own 100 shares, the dividends that you are supposed to receive is as follows:

$100 - 30% (Withholding Tax) - 1% or minimum $2.50 = $67.50

If company declare $1 dividend and you only own 1 share, since the total dividend is less than $2.50, you won't be getting anything...

Isnt it
$100 - $2.50 = $97.50
$1k - $10 = $990
$10k - $25 = $9975?

Hello all,

Am considering between Tiger broker or FSM for US shares. As understood for FSM there is this corporate action fee. Does that means for stock split etc we will need to pay USD 50 too?

unfortunately that seems to be their practice. maybe they just set market order and get makan by sellers who are waiting for them. best time to sell your ETF is when FSMone is buying :s13:
