Announcement

Managing an active investment portfolio can be challenging. This is why, we have enhanced our wealth management platform so that you can have a holistic view of your wealth and can instantly track the performance of your investments. This enhancement will allow you to manage and review your cash flow and returns better.

To cater for the changes given above, we have consolidated three existing sets of terms and conditions since the enhancement on 3 February 2022 – the OCBC Premier Banking Terms and Conditions, the Terms and Conditions Governing OCBC Investment Products and Services, and the OCBC Premier Banking and OCBC Premier Private Client Terms and Conditions – into one. This is known as the OCBC Premier Banking and OCBC Premier Private Client Terms and Conditions (the Revised Terms and Conditions). The Revised Terms and Conditions apply to you for wealth investments and wealth financing. They do not change your current status as a client of OCBC Premier Banking or OCBC Premier Private Client.

Foreign currency

  1. Foreign currency investments or deposits are subject to inherent exchange rate fluctuation that may provide opportunities and risks. Consequently, exchange rate fluctuations may affect the value of your foreign currency investments or deposits.
  2. Earning on foreign currency investments or deposits may change depending on the exchange rates prevalent at the time of their maturity if you choose to convert.
  3. Exchange controls may apply to certain foreign currencies from time to time.
  4. Any pre-termination costs will be taken and deducted from your deposit directly and without notice.

Dual currency returns

  1. By buying Dual Currency Returns, you are giving us the right to repay you at a future date in a different currency from the currency in which you made your original investment, even if you would prefer not to be paid in this currency at that time. Dual Currency Returns are affected by foreign exchange rates, which may affect how much you get back from your investment. You may receive less than you originally invested.
  2. Foreign exchange control restrictions may apply to the foreign currencies linked to your Dual Currency Returns. As a result, we may repay your investment and interest in a different currency. You may receive less than you originally invested when the amount of this different currency is converted back to the base currency (the currency you originally invested). You may be able to get information on foreign exchange control restrictions, if any, for each foreign currency offered in relation to Dual Currency Returns, from the relevant monetary, regulatory or other governmental authorities for that currency.
  3. We will not end Dual Currency Returns before the maturity date (the date they are due to end). You may, however, withdraw the amount you originally invested before the maturity date. If you do this, please remember that you will have to pay any charges that apply which are calculated based on the amount of the time remaining before maturity date, as well as current market conditions relating to strike prices, foreign exchange rates and changes in the underlying foreign exchange pair. These charges may mean that you get back much less than you originally invested. Please feel free to approach your relationship manager for details of the procedures and charges that apply if you withdraw your Dual Currency Returns investment before the maturity date.
  4. Dual Currency Returns are not insured deposits for the purposes of the Deposit Insurance and Policy Owners’ Protection Schemes Act of Singapore.

Collective investment schemes

  1. A copy of the prospectus of each fund is available and may be obtained from the fund manager or any of its approved distributors. Potential investors should read the prospectus for details on the relevant fund before deciding whether to subscribe for, or purchase units in the fund.
  2. The value of the units in the funds and the income accruing to the units, if any, may fall or rise. Please refer to the prospectus of the relevant fund for the name of the fund manager and the investment objectives of the fund.
  3. Investment involves risks. Past performance figures do not reflect future performance.
  4. Any reference to a company, financial product or asset class is used for illustrative purposes and does not represent our recommendation in any way.

For funds that are listed on an approved exchange, investors cannot redeem their units of those funds with the manager, or may only redeem units with the manager under certain specified conditions. The listing of the units of those funds on any approved exchange does not guarantee a liquid market for the units.

Cash holdings within your Wealth Portfolio will now be used to fund your investments going forward. This also means that any incoming coupons or dividends arising from your investment assets will return to the funding Wealth Portfolio. Likewise, any interest and charges due from your investment liabilities will be deducted from the Wealth Portfolio.

In what scenario will I require an OCBC Wealth Account?

The OCBC Wealth Account will be set up for banking relationships in which all account holders are OCBC Premier Banking and/or OCBC Premier Private Client customers. This offering is part of our segment proposition.

When will I receive the details to my new Wealth Portfolio?

We will be writing to you after 3 February 2022 following the successful enhancement of our Wealth Management platform. Alternatively, you can reach out to your Client Advisor / Relationship Manager to obtain this information or login to your OCBC Online/Mobile Banking on/after 3 February 2022.
