[Asia Economy Reporter Kangwook Cho] Shinhan Bank announced on the 23rd that it will implement a service that allows linking Shinhan Financial Investment overseas stock trading accounts based on foreign currency deposit and withdrawal accounts.

This service connects Shinhan Financial Investment accounts, which can trade overseas stocks, by using Shinhan Bank's foreign currency deposit and withdrawal account 'Foreign Currency Change-up Deposit' as a settlement account. Customers who already hold a 'Foreign Currency Change-up Deposit' can use their existing accounts, or they can open a new 'Foreign Currency Change-up Deposit' account and simultaneously create a Shinhan Financial Investment overseas stock trading account.

In line with the service launch, Shinhan Bank will also hold the '2021 Cheer up!' event. Until the end of January next year, the first 5,000 customers who link their 'Foreign Currency Change-up Deposit' and Shinhan Financial Investment overseas stock accounts will receive a lucky $2, and 100 customers who make their first stock trade will be entered into a draw to receive $20. Additionally, among the event participants, the top 2 customers with the highest number of trades and the top 3 customers with the largest transaction amounts will each receive an additional $2,021.

A Shinhan Bank official said, "Interest in overseas stock investment among customers has been increasing recently," adding, "For customers planning to invest in overseas stocks, the newly launched service and event will be very useful."
