Meritz Securities Hosts Two Prize Events for Professional Investors

[Asia Economy Reporter Jang Hyowon] Meritz Securities (CEO Choi Heemun) announced on the 7th that it will hold a Super365 account opening event for Contract for Difference (CFD) customers until April 30. Meritz Securities CFD account holders who open a Super365 account and maintain a balance of over 1 million KRW by April 30 will be entered into a draw to receive Starbucks gifticons, awarded to up to 200 winners.

In addition, until March 31, an event will be held where customers trading the ACE Vietnam ETF from Korea Investment Trust Management can win prizes through a lottery.

Vietnam is emerging as a global alternative investment destination, often called the post-China. Last year, it recorded an economic growth rate of 8.02%, the highest in the past 12 years amid a global economic downturn, attracting worldwide attention.

Following the recovery of global trade after COVID-19, corporate earnings have improved, and especially with the expansion of foreign ownership and stock market advancement, the financial market is expected to benefit, making it an increasingly attractive investment. Accordingly, Meritz Securities has prepared a Vietnam ETF trading event aligned with Korea Investment Trust Management’s 'Revisit Vietnam' promotion, as the first domestic asset management company to launch a Vietnam fund.

The event targets two ETFs: ACE Vietnam VN30 (synthetic) and ACE Bloomberg Vietnam VN30 Futures Leverage (H). The ACE Vietnam VN30 (synthetic) ETF invests in 30 large-cap stocks representing the Vietnamese stock market. The ACE Bloomberg Vietnam VN30 Futures Leverage (H) ETF is the world’s first leveraged investment product for the Vietnam market, tracking twice the daily positive return (+) of the Bloomberg VN30 Futures Excess Return Index.

During the event period, customers who trade a combined total of over 100 million KRW in the target ETFs and maintain their balance until April 5 will be entered into a draw to win prizes: ▲ one Vietnam travel voucher worth approximately 3 million KRW (for balances exceeding 30 million KRW), ▲ six Vietnam travel vouchers worth approximately 2 million KRW (three for balances over 30 million KRW and three for balances under 30 million KRW), and ▲ ten iPads worth approximately 1 million KRW each for ten winners.

All CFD and Super365 accounts eligible for these benefits can be easily opened through non-face-to-face account registration on the Meritz Securities app.

A Meritz Securities representative said, “For professional investors interested in CFD trading, opening a Meritz Securities CFD account and trading Vietnam ETFs is a great opportunity to receive prize benefits,” adding, “We will continue to lead in providing not only low fees but also a variety of products and services for professional investors’ CFD trading.”
