[Smart Finance Awards] Korea Investment & Securities Moves to Previously Used Services Based on Recent Search Keywords

MTS Innovation Award - Korea Investment & Securities

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] Korea Investment & Securities ranked second overall in the '2022 Asia Smart Finance Awards' Mobile Trading System (MTS) evaluation and received the 'MTS Innovation Award.'

Korea Investment & Securities' mobile application 'Korea Investment' was highly rated for enhancing convenience by allowing menu searches through the search bar on the home screen. In particular, users could view recently searched keywords or menu history, making it easy to return to previously used services.

Convenience is a major strength. First, the trading screen offers both real-time orders and scheduled orders, enabling 24-hour ordering. It also provides simulated investment services related to stocks as well as derivatives.

In investment information search, Korea Investment emphasized convenience. By using product barcode recognition, users can search for listed companies producing or distributing the product and related categories, allowing them to obtain investment information in daily life. Specialized content for Exchange-Traded Funds (ETF) is also provided. Investors can find specialized information necessary for ETF stock searches, such as ETFs including the listed company, comparison of favorite products, and themes.

The stock summary tab, which allows users to check domestic and international stocks, ETFs, and Equity-Linked Warrants (ELW) related company information, investor trends, news, and financial information all at once and access desired content, has also strengthened the investment information search function. Additionally, content for beginner investors is provided, including major issues, top investors' purchased stocks, and portfolios of investment masters. An integrated search function is also available, allowing users to look up not only company information but also financial products by entering the company name.

Furthermore, 'My Financial Products,' which allows users to easily check details of financial products subscribed through Korea Investment & Securities at a glance and make additional purchases or sales, received excellent evaluations. The financial product menu area provides explanations of features rather than advertisements for specific financial products, and users can easily check products sold weekly. Foreign currency repurchase agreements (RP), issuance notes, and Equity-Linked Securities (ELS) products, which allow investment of held dollars, are also regularly offered.

'My Schedule,' which further enhances the quality of personalized customer services, was also well received. Through this menu, users can check weekly details such as maturity, interest, and dividends of stocks or financial products. The 'MY' function allows easy information management by enabling users to check and modify customer grade, investment propensity, service application status, and transfer limits.

In the authentication section, convenience was further improved with a service that allows users to authenticate by scanning a QR code from the MTS when accessing the homepage or HTS (Home Trading System), attracting attention.
