KB Securities said on Jan. 8 that it will hold an event offering "pension savings online exchange-traded fund (ETF) trading fee benefits" to ease transaction burdens for pension savings investment customers and enhance online investment convenience.
Without a separate event application process, after opening a pension savings account through KB Securities' non-face-to-face channel and making an ETF transaction through an online platform, a trading fee of 0.0050483% applies.
The trading fee benefit applies only to the first pension savings account opened via a non-face-to-face channel. On KB Securities' flagship MTS, "KB M-able," customers can conveniently trade more than 900 ETFs. Real-time pension investment information is available, including the top 10 most purchased by customers and ETFs with high dividend yields.
Along with the event, KB Securities is operating a "retirement pension ETF installment service" to support customers' diverse investment method choices. KB Securities noted that the pension savings ETF installment service automatically buys ETFs on predesignated amounts and dates, which can reduce the burden of having to judge the timing of purchases based on market conditions.
Song Sang-eun, head of the pension group at KB Securities, said, "The pension savings ETF installment purchase service is one option to experience ETF investing by spreading out the investment amount and timing," adding, "Together with the online ETF trading fee benefit event, we hope customers can take advantage of a more convenient investment environment that eases transaction burdens."
