Kiwoom Securities announced on the 2nd that it will hold an event offering up to 90% off on domestic futures and options trading commissions. The event period runs until Nov. 28.
New customers who open a futures or options account for the first time or dormant customers who have not made any transactions in the last 6 months can participate in the event. Kiwoom Securities will apply the commission discount for two months to customers who sign up for the event.
The discounted items include index futures and options, stock futures and options, and currency futures. The KRX nighttime futures and options, which started trading in June, are also included.
The commission rate for KOSPI 200 futures will be reduced from 0.003% to approximately 0.00025104%, an almost 90% cut. Additionally, customers who transact over 40 billion won in futures or 1.2 billion won in options during the applicable period can extend the benefit for an additional two months, making it possible to receive perks for up to four months. Customers trading domestic futures and options for the first time can receive 200,000 won in cash if they meet the conditions.
A representative from Kiwoom Securities noted, "Futures and options are investment tools that broaden the strategic choices for investors," adding, "This event will be a great opportunity to enjoy both the commission discount and Kiwoom Securities' convenient trading system."
