[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Ju-yeon] Kiwoom Securities announced on the 7th that it will hold the '2020 New Year's First Plan, Start U.S. Stock Trading with $40' event, expanding the target from the existing $40 event as the first overseas stock event of January 2020.


The $40 event, which is becoming Kiwoom Securities' signature overseas stock event, supports customers' U.S. stock trading by providing $40 directly to the customer's account upon application. Customers can purchase stocks priced at $40 or less with the provided $40, or buy stocks priced above $40 by depositing additional funds, helping those who have hesitated to start U.S. stock trading. This event is open to anyone who has a Kiwoom Securities non-face-to-face account and is either a U.S. stock non-trading customer or a U.S. stock dormant customer for 3 months.


Kiwoom Securities also lowered customers' burden on overseas stocks by running a 95% foreign exchange preferential rate event, expanded from the existing 80% preferential rate. In addition, Kiwoom Securities continuously holds educational seminars to help customers understand U.S. stocks and the U.S. market to broaden the base of overseas stock investors. They also launched next-generation overseas stock trading platforms, HeroMoon Global and HeroMoon S Global, equipped with various functions tailored to domestic investors' needs.



A representative from Kiwoom Securities' Global Sales Team stated, "Even previous participants can join again if they have not traded for 3 months from the event start date," adding, "We have also expanded the benefits of the previous 0.1% online commission and 80% foreign exchange preferential rate event to include a 95% preferential rate benefit."
