Korea Investment & Securities 'Bankis Personal Pension·IRP' Event

[Asia Economy Reporter Junho Hwang] Korea Investment & Securities, a subsidiary of Korea Financial Group, is conducting the 'BanKIS Personal Pension·IRP Event' for BanKIS customers until the end of June.

BanKIS is Korea Investment & Securities' online trading service that can be opened non-face-to-face or through commercial banks.

Korea Investment & Securities BanKIS customers who apply for the event will receive department store gift certificates up to KRW 30,000 for IRP and up to KRW 200,000 for personal pensions, depending on the net increase amount.

In particular, if more than KRW 20 million of pensions from other financial companies are transferred to the BanKIS account, an additional KRW 100,000 gift certificate will be given. When maturity funds from Individual Savings Accounts (ISA) are deposited into pension accounts, five times the deposit amount is recognized as the net increase amount to provide benefits.

Events for new customers are also underway. Customers who subscribe to personal pensions and IRP for the first time and apply for an automatic monthly transfer of KRW 100,000 will receive a KRW 10,000 gift certificate each. Even just opening an account enters customers into a draw to receive a Starbucks gifticon worth KRW 30,000. Additional raffle tickets are given when opening an ISA, which allows stock trading and tax-free investment.
