[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Ju-yeon] Kiwoom Securities announced on the 6th that it will hold the 'Kiwoom Securities Pension ETF & Fund Grand Festival Season 2' event until September 29.
This event is held as Season 2 following the popularity of Season 1, which ran until the end of July. Customers who purchase pension funds, KODEX ETFs, or TIGER ETFs for the first time through a pension savings account will receive a total benefit of 30,000 KRW, including a fund coupon (one 10,000 KRW coupon) and an integrated mobile gift certificate (up to 20,000 KRW). Additionally, depending on the net increase amount, department store gift certificates (up to 70,000 KRW) will be provided.
The pension savings account is a lifelong tax-saving account that offers up to 660,000 KRW in annual tax deductions and has no restrictions on who can open an account, so anyone can join. Through Kiwoom Securities, direct investment in pension funds and pension ETFs is possible via the pension savings account. It is attractive even compared to general ETF investments. When trading ETFs through a pension account, investors can enjoy tax benefits such as 'tax deduction, tax deferral, and low tax rate.'
A Kiwoom Securities official stated, "As the low-interest-rate era continues, more smart investors are switching to pension funds and ETFs that can expect higher returns than pension insurance," adding, "We hope this will be a good opportunity to prepare for year-end tax settlement in advance while also receiving event benefits."
For more details about the event, please refer to the Kiwoom Securities Asset Management website or contact the Kiwoom Financial Center.
