Hi Investment & Securities Conducts Event for New and Dormant Account Openings via Non-Face-to-Face Channels

Credit Loan Interest Rate Set at 4.9% Annually Until Year-End
Online Trading Fees for US Stocks via MTS Waived for 2 Months

Hi Investment & Securities announced on the 25th that it will hold an account opening and stock trading event for new and dormant customers of its non-face-to-face Smart Branch until April 16.

First, during the event period, customers who open a new account at Hi Investment & Securities' Smart Branch will be charged a domestic stock online trading commission of 0.01%. For futures options, a preferential commission rate will be provided for three months, and if traded even once, the benefit will be extended up to six months. The commission benefits do not apply to trades made through the system trading partnership service, YesTrader.

Additional reward benefits will be provided based on the amount of stock trading. Customers who trade even one share of domestic stocks will receive 5,000 KRW, and those who trade over 1 million KRW will receive an additional 10 KRW, while those trading over 5 million KRW will receive an additional 30,000 KRW.

The credit loan interest rate will be preferentially applied at a single rate of 4.9% annually until the end of the year, and actual interest incurred within one month from the account opening date will be supported up to a maximum of 1 million KRW.

For U.S. stocks, if traded through the Mobile Trading System (MTS) "iMHi," a full commission waiver will be provided for two months from the account opening date. After the commission benefit period ends, a preferential commission rate of 0.05% will be applied until the end of the year, along with a 90% discount on currency exchange fees and free real-time U.S. stock price services.

If customers have traded even one share of U.S. stocks within three months before the service benefit end date, additional preferential treatment on stock trading and currency exchange fees, as well as free real-time price services, will be continuously provided for one year. Additionally, a coupon for two months of completely free online trading commissions for U.S. stocks, usable in 2025, will be issued.

Additional reward benefits based on U.S. stock trading amounts will also be provided. If the monthly stock trading amount in January-February, March, and April exceeds 5 million KRW, 10 USD will be paid for each month. If the monthly trading condition is met twice, 20 USD will be paid, and if met three times, 30 USD will be additionally paid.

Along with this, a stock transfer event will be held for all customers of the non-face-to-face Smart Branch. Customers who transfer domestic and U.S.-listed stocks worth over 10 million KRW from other securities firms to Hi Investment & Securities' Smart Branch and trade over 10 million KRW will receive up to 10 million KRW in cash.
