Korea Investment & Securities Co. said on the 30th that it has upgraded its mobile trading system (MTS), expanding the roster of global financial firms providing research and making it easier to check information related to the brokerage-type individual savings account (ISA).
Korea Investment & Securities Co. newly added research from JPMorgan and China's Guotai Junan Securities, expanding the number of global research providers to four.
The brokerage-type ISA service was also revamped. First, the MTS now allows users to check account enrollment information and maturity dates. It also provides information on tax-saving and individual retirement pension account (IRP) conversions to improve account management convenience.
In addition, it plans to integrate the installment investment service for domestic and U.S. stocks, "Stock saving," so it can be managed on a single screen.
On the "Stock saving" home, it offers both full-share (1 share) investing in domestic stocks and fractional-share investing in U.S. stocks, and enables everything from investment applications to checking histories in one go. It plans to expand the service to include full-share investing in U.S. stocks going forward.
It also strengthened the function of providing information for investing in U.S. stocks. As with domestic stocks, realized gains and losses from U.S. stock transactions can be viewed in detail by ticker and by date.
Along with this, it is introducing new market commentary content using artificial intelligence (AI), such as "How is the market now?" and "Market briefing now." Based on major domestic and overseas news and market information, it allows users to check market trends more intuitively.
A Korea Investment & Securities Co. official said, "We are continuously improving our services so that investors can check and use the information they need more conveniently in the mobile environment," adding, "We will continue to strengthen the competitiveness of our digital investment services with a focus on user experience."
