Kiwoom Securities said on Jan. 5 that it will run the "Lucky 2026, brokerage ISA benefit dream" event for brokerage-type individual savings accounts (ISA) from the 1st through March 31 to mark the new year.
The event is open to both new and existing brokerage-type ISA customers.
First, all customers who newly open a brokerage-type ISA account or transfer one from another firm will receive a 10,000-won Shinsegae gift certificate. Customers who re-enroll after maturity are also eligible when they newly open an account.
Second, among customers making their very first transaction in a brokerage-type ISA account, 3,000 will be selected by drawing to receive up to 10 shares of a domestically listed exchange-traded fund (ETF).
Finally, depending on the net deposits in a brokerage-type ISA account, customers who meet the conditions will receive gift certificates worth up to 1 million won. When transferring an ISA account from another firm, twice the transfer amount will be recognized as the deposit when calculating net deposits.
In a brokerage-type ISA, on net profits generated in the account, the general type can receive tax exemption benefits up to 2 million won and the low-income type up to 4 million won. However, if the account is terminated early before meeting the mandatory three-year subscription period, tax benefits do not apply.
Meanwhile, Kiwoom Securities is also running an additional event offering mobile e-gift cards worth up to 180,000 won to customers who make transactions in exchange-traded funds (ETF) in brokerage-type ISA accounts.
