In JB, they always quote @ 6 - 7 points lower. Need to ask them to give us better rates.

I am going to use Derivative( dual currency) account as conversion rate is abv 2.50 ( spot price) now. Also meanwhile we can earn interest on the SGD deposit before it converts.Interest rate depends on our 'strike' price , can eb as high as 8%. I dont have all the info as my friend newly introduced me to this. I need to convert a large sum so I think this method may be useful. I am not sure yet about the extra charges like TT by the bank over here, is it typical TT rate or higher. Will share when I know more.
If anyone knows more, please share as other Bros & Sis may also benefit from this. UOB, Stanchart in Malaysia offer this if you want to find out more.

For wealth banking customer is 3.75 % as compared to normal bank customer which is 3.7%.

Anyway it is better than CIMB which gives only 3.1%. Looking to do a switch soon.
