Frequently Asked Questions
General
Can I use my SRS funds to purchase shares?
Yes you can. Before submitting an SRS trade, you need to open an SRS Investment Account with an agent bank. The SRS Investment Scheme account number also needs to be updated into your Trading account with us. Please contact your trading representative to update your SRS Investment bank account details. It will take 2 – 3 working days for the linkage to be updated. Once updated, SRS trades can be conducted on POEMS.
After the linkage has been established, you will need to select the option "SRS" under "trade type" to conduct an SRS stocks trade. You are advised to check on the SRS eligibility with your SRS operators before submitting the order.
Please note that you can only submit SRS trade after linkage has been established. Contra is not available for SRS trades.
