It s more for the kids to save

Not gonna even use syfe for usd items cos recently i learnt that when i transfer funds (i m not using dbs) from syfe to my uob - its TT fees is enormous!! Hated it to the max
What TT fees? I thought they only convert from USD to SGD? Still got TT fees?

https://help.syfe.com/hc/en-us/articles/360054591954-Are-there-charges-for-making-a-withdrawal-Please note that for Telegraphic / MEPS transfers, the banks may charge a fee, which will be incurred to you.

Foreign Exchange Charges: For overseas transfers or making cross currency transfers to a Singapore bank account, your bank may charge a foreign exchange fee. This forex fee will depend on the prevailing exchange rate between USD/SGD and your local currency.

Possible bank charges: For withdrawals above S$200k to a local bank account, it will be done via MEPS transfer where a cable fee and a handling fee is charged by your bank.

Ooh that is new news to me. Guess Syfe is out for me. Thanks for your sharing appreciated.
i did ask u to shortlist 1-2 so tht i would be able to Identify 4 u

& i clearly stated it is rather obvious - if it is 4 most of the skts/etfs we will use broker / moomoo....
a robo is just a robo 4 newbie to hve an ez life .... was puzzled when u claimed to avoid sch fees , u wanna fsm 1st then revert to Robo...Usu it is Robo then diy yourself w broker

I m also nt sure why do u only Fsm - u getting loads of UTs?

For those who can only pick and time 1 etf/stks only at each time (but will do so for newer choice later)? Moomoo

It is obvious!


Most of my stocks/etfs r in moomoo (cos syfe dont hve all my love)& i liked it all at one place
- so nothing much to thk and ponder over

Nvm abt the price diffces

I mention before I got UT since year 2000. I approach age 50. So ETF will be more like complement as some ETF stocks duplicate with the UT I have. So most likely the ETF will be theme tactical play not those s&p 500 normal kind.

50??? when buying stks/etfs , the min lot is set by the Exhgs , nt by broker ah

I am talking about FSM ETF RSP where you put 50 every month test water buy into the ETF. This approach will have fractional shares so the same program allow you to sell fractional shares at flat 1 SGD, 5 HKD fees. I use this to test water

Huh
Zhun bo
Like that select 8 sure die siaz
More than 3% liao
No, u dunno percentages? It's still 0. 6+0.75 =1.35%, assuming it's fund ER is 0.75%. If u select 1 fund and put in 1000, cost is 13.5 per year. If youvselect 8 funds and put in 1000 each, cost is 1.35% x 8 x 1000.

I thk u totally get it wrong!!!!!


U invested 8k (1k each) right?? Syfe will charge u a % x 8k for the mgt fees
What s wrong with that?!!!
The etf expense ratio is computed accordingly by the etf co. U selected


Syfe will not bill u a separate expense ratio (er)!

Just like other brokers also will not bill u for that


If i invested only 800!?! So just 800x the mgt fee% eg 0.6%
Which is 4.80sgd per yr!!!!!
Is this so difficult to understand?

Why r u so confused by reading from others??
