Mine is new. So to establish a "relationship" first, of course he has to entice me with my little requests like the exclusive e-saver rates.

I still have not received my BI. Called the service line and they also stated by 25th July, but I said this wasn't the case for the previous rounds for years back and she said she will email the relevant department and they will get back to me, still have not replied to me yet.

You can make a thousand calls and its useless coz its stated clearly in Point 13 of the T&C that the bank has up till the 25th of the following month to credit the bonus interest to you. Previous rounds pay u earlier doesn't mean the pattern will always be this way.

To open a USD Securities Settlement Account on Standard Chartered’s Online Trading platform when you already have an SGD settlement account, here’s what you need to do:



📝 1. You must apply (in-person or online via branch)​


  • While SCB often prompts selection during initial online trading account setup, you can still apply afterward—but this typically requires visiting a branch to complete additional paperwork .
  • According to user reports, you can't open it fully online via the portal; you’ll need to go to a branch (take a queue ticket and meet with a Relationship Manager—not just a teller) to open the USD settlement account .


📄 2. What you’ll need to bring/apply:​


  1. Standard Chartered Online Trading account (you already have this).
  2. Identification documents for account opening—typically NRIC/Passport & proof of address .
  3. Submit or sign the W‑8BEN form and FATCA declaration—required for USD trading in U.S. markets sc.com+3forums.hardwarezone.com.sg+3seedly.sg+3.
  4. Make sure it’s linked to the same Online Trading account and mandates you already hold reddit.com+14cunghoidap.com+14reddit.com+14.


⏳ 3. Timeline & activation​


  • Activation typically takes around 5–7 working days after submitting the form and required documents .
  • Some users report that even after funding, the account may not appear until the branch has fully activated it—so allow for a full week before it's visible for trading .


✅ 4. After opening: fund and trade​


  • Use Transfer Between My Accounts (Internet/Mobile Banking) or LiveFX to convert SGD → USD and top up the USD settlement account reddit.com+9thefipharmacist.com+9seedly.sg+9.
  • Once the USD account is live and funded, you can select it when placing orders for U.S.-listed securities. Until then, the platform will default to your SGD account .


✔️ Summary – Step-by-Step:​


  1. Visit a Standard Chartered branch and request to open a USD Securities Settlement Account.
  2. Bring your ID + proof of address, and sign the W‑8BEN + FATCA forms.
  3. Wait ~7 business days for activation.
  4. Once approved, fund via internal transfer/LiveFX.
  5. Your USD settlement account will then appear as a selectable option when trading US securities.
