FAQS
Common questions
More questions and answers
What does the Wealth Portfolio’s new online trading feature entail?

Previously, you were not able to trade Equities (defined as exchange-listed shares, excluding Rights, Warrants, and Singapore Depository Receipts, Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Exchange- traded Funds) through your Wealth Portfolio. With this enhancement, you will be able to trade these Equities via the OCBC app and Internet Banking.

You will be able to trade on eight exchanges across these markets – Singapore, Hong Kong, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and Japan – and these trades will be settled through your Wealth Portfolio. Any newly traded Equities will be custodised with OCBC and/or a custodian nominated by OCBC.

How do I gain access to this online trading feature?

This feature is part of an enhancement to the wealth experience for OCBC Premier Banking and OCBC Premier Private Client customers. As such, it will be availed to you through your Wealth Portfolio if you are:

  1. At least 21 years old; and
  2. An OCBC Premier Banking or OCBC Premier Private Client customer.

To start trading, please use the OCBC app (Log in > More > Investments > Equities > Orders) or Internet Banking (Log in > Investments & Insurance > Equities).

If it is your first time logging in to these platforms, you may be asked to acknowledge the following:

  1. A Customer Account Review (CAR); and
  2. A Risk Warning Statement acknowledgement.

Thereafter, you will be able to access our online trading feature immediately.

For more details, please contact your Client Advisor.

What is the initial deposit needed to open an OCBC Wealth Account?

The requirements for OCBC Premier Banking customers can be found here, while those for OCBC Premier Private Client customers can be found here.

What is the difference between trading using the Wealth Portfolio and a trading account and a securities account?

The Wealth Portfolio’s new trading capability is an enhancement for OCBC Premier Banking and OCBC Premier Private Client customers.

Any new Equities you trade will be consolidated with the existing holdings in your Wealth Portfolio. This means that you will be able to take fuller advantage of the advanced portfolio analytics and investment tools we will roll out in the future. If you have a Wealth Financing facility, any marginable Equities you purchase through your enhanced Wealth Portfolio will increase your portfolio’s borrowing power, up to the limit of your facility.

Another way to trade is through a trading account. A trading account is managed by a securities (stock broking) house like OCBC Securities Private Limited (OSPL).

You can link your trading account to a securities account like the Central Depository Private Limited (CDP) Securities Account. In this arrangement, any Singapore trades you execute will be reflected in your CDP Securities Account. CDP also acts as the custodian of your Singapore shares.

For those seeking a more unified experience, the OCBC Wealth Account – which holds your Wealth Portfolio and holdings – allows you to trade, monitor your holdings and even bank using a single account.
