SGX has been quick to implement the Customer Account Review as required by the new MAS regulations.
I was surfing through their website yesterday when I found that module, as well as other online modules for investor education.
According to the system, the account review information will be shared with your stock brokers, who will then access whether you can trade specified investment products, which will include the following:
- ETF
- Warrants (not issued by the company)
- ETN
- Certificates
- Futures
- Options
Unfortunately, the SGX website seems to be down at this moment so I can’t share the link.
In fact, I had problems accessing the website for the whole morning. Overwhelmed with too much traffic perhaps?
And STI is down about 75 points at this moment as I write this.
Update : The link to the customer account review is here.
