    Bank account in Jersey

    Not yet. They emailed few days ago that if I won't fund the account soon they will close it. I'm still hesitating though.

    Monaco Relocation

    I'm considering moving to Monaco and would be great if anyone knows the following: Would I be able to keep my singapore bank account? (I know it's impossible for EU residents but not sure about non-EU) Does the 500,000 EUR requirement must be in cash or can be in securities?

    Thailand Tax -> CC/DC Withdrawals (CDM/ATM)

    I've been watching the whole vid and got the impression that both the reform and joining AEOI are because of regulatory pressure and not their free will. My guess is that OECD did not want them to be tax-free-non-AEOI country and threatened in sanctions similar to Dubai if it won't change...

    Wealth Storage: Deposit vs Bond

    Client A holds account with UBS, the account balance is 1M CHF, which he locked in term deposit that yields him 3%. Client B holds account with interactive brokers, his portfolio includes only UBS bonds with 3% coupon, which he bought for 1M CHF. Would it be incorrect to say that, at least...

    Diversifying securities across multiple brokers and jurisdictions (personal wealth)

    Thank you for your response. I understand your point and it makes a lot sense, but when you hold funds in VP bank CH or VP LU, for example, aren't you still entrusting & exposed to LI since this is where the bank is headquartered?

    Onboarding as existing client in the same banking group

    For the sake of example, let's say you're priority client of Citi or SC in Jersey and you want to become a client of their SG or HK branch: 1. Would you need to go through the same due diligence all over again? 2. Would you need to fulfil the minimum relationship balance also in these branches?

    Diversifying securities across multiple brokers and jurisdictions (personal wealth)

    Thank you for sharing this insight. If we take your VP bank example, I wonder what layer of safety or added value you obtain by splitting your assets between their LI, CH, LU, SG, HK branches over just concentrating all assets in LI? I'm probably missing something, but your exposure to LI would...
