Korea Investment & Securities Launches BanKIS "All-Out Bond Event"

Korea Investment & Securities announced on July 23 that it will hold the "BanKIS All-Out Bond Event" for BanKIS customers until September 30. BanKIS is Korea Investment & Securities' non-face-to-face and commercial bank-linked service.

The main feature of this event is that customers can receive up to 330,000 won in department store gift certificates and benefits worth 200 US dollars if they meet the investment requirements. New customers who invest at least 1 million won in either domestic or overseas bonds will each receive a 10,000 won gift certificate. Depending on the net purchase amount, customers can receive up to 200,000 won in gift certificates for domestic bonds and up to 200 US dollars in benefits for overseas bonds. If investing through an ISA brokerage account, the net purchase amount is counted as double. An 80% discount on foreign exchange fees is also applied when investing in overseas bonds.

Separate benefits are also provided for exchange-traded bond investors. Customers who make a net purchase of at least 50 million won in exchange-traded bonds will receive a gift certificate worth 10,000 won. If bonds held at other firms are transferred into a BanKIS account, customers can receive up to 100,000 won in gift certificates depending on the amount. For overseas bonds, the transferred amount is counted as double.

Customers may participate in multiple categories of the event simultaneously. Participation is available after prior registration through the Korea Investment & Securities website or mobile app (MTS).

Park Jaehyun, Head of the Retail Customer Group at Korea Investment & Securities, stated, "We hope this event will help lower the barriers to bond investment," adding, "We will continue to introduce events that provide substantial returns and abundant benefits tailored to the diverse investment preferences of our customers."
