Korea Investment & Securities said on Dec. 19 that it will hold an exchange-traded fund (ETF) investment event for Bankis individual savings accounts (ISA) in brokerage type and individual pension account customers through Jan. 31 next year.
In this event, customers who record net purchases of ETFs from seven asset managers—Shinhan, Korea Investment, Hanwha, Samsung, Mirae Asset, KB, and Samsung Active—will be entered into a drawing for mobile gift certificates of up to 30,000 won by purchase amount tier. Participation can be duplicated for each manager, and benefits of up to 210,000 won are available.
In addition, customers who apply for the ETF auto-purchase service of at least 100,000 won per month for one year or longer will be entered into a drawing for Baemin gift certificates. All customers who make net deposits above a set amount into ISA brokerage-type accounts and individual pension accounts will receive Starbucks coffee coupons.
A Korea Investment & Securities official said, "We prepared the event to boost the use of tax-saving accounts during year-end tax settlement season and to support customers' ETF investments."
