Hey guys, looking at the share price of scb, are you all worried it will go under? If that happens, what will be the procedure like to claim our shares back?

I know temasek owns 20% bla bla, but truth is they are heavily exposed to commodities and emerging markets, so anything can happen really.

At most the shares would be transferred from 1 custodian to another.

I think SCB is too big to fail.
Anyway, I believe your money is protected even in the case of chapter 11, but in worse case scenario, may not get 100%.

Whenever I transact I will receive a securities contract note from SCB in my letterbox. Is it possible to stop the sending of the hardcopy letter. Waste of paper and money.

It's a legal contract. Check the t&c written at the bottom. For you to verify and use that as a basis for your dispute, if there's any.

Looking forward to the day they stop sending the contract and keep a PDF copy online like what we do now for bank statement. Save paper.

a quick check. anyone here buy stock on LSE specifically eg shell? if yes. should i buy from LSE in pence or NYSE with ADR?

I am looking at LSE but not sure about how will dividend tax be applied? i understand for ADR there is no tax if the dividends are below 100k an amount i will not hit :p

no tax on LSE also. the only choice is whether you want to receive dividend in pounds or USD lor. If you want to take pounds, buy the class B shares on the LSE. If you want USD, take the class B ADRs on the NYSE.

Thank you. Yes for clarifying.

I realized the share price on LSE is lower than NYSE ADR probably due to fx spread. Correct? Bro vested On the ADR RDS.B?
