Corporate Online Discount Brokerage Account:
Account Set up fee is US$500.
The corporate online discount brokerage accounts are established through our correspondent online discount brokerage firm in Panama City, Republic of Panama. The brokerage firm is an NASD registered, licensed and insured international financial institution. All securities and cash deposits are held in custody by one of the world's largest international clearing firms. Each account is insured through the SIPC (Securities Investor Protection Corporation) up to US$500,000 and carries additional insurance up to US$99.5 million through a major international insurance carrier.
The brokers/financial advisors are English or Spanish speaking, NASD registered, licensed brokers who can provide you with sound investment advice for investing in mutual funds, stocks, bonds, options, money markets, etc. They mainly trade on the US and Canadian stock exchanges (NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX, Toronto, etc.), however, they can trade on most major securities exchanges around the globe.
Trade fees vary depending on the trade amount, type of security traded, and the stock exchange traded on. We cannot provide a fees list for trade fees since it varies so much from security types and from one market to another, however, we can say that their discount brokerage fees range from US$50 to US$75 per trade depending on the security traded and the market it is traded on. However, when trading no-load mutual funds, the fund company will generally cover the trade fee.
Each account includes an optional Corporate USD checkbook, Internet access, and Corporate MasterCard Debit Card.
Debit Card: Annual fee for the Visa Debit Card is US$75. There
are no transaction fees charged for ATM cash withdrawals. You must have
a minimum balance of US$25,000 in order to qualify for a corporate debit
card, however, you do not need to maintain US$25,000 in the account during
the use of the debit card.
USD Check Book: The corporate USD checkbook is used to make payments
by check to anyone around the globe. The checks are internationally accepted
by most banks around the globe. The checkbook will be provided once the
initial minimum deposit of US$3000 is made.
Internet Access: Internet access is provided so you can access
your corporate account information online and begin trading using a secured
password and userID.
Currency:
Funds can only be held in USD. Any transfers received in other currencies will be immediately converted to USD prior to entering the account.
The following documentation is required:
A. Photocopy of passport for each signatory. The photocopy of passport should be notarized, and should include the photo of the person, the personal details (name, date of birth, passport number, etc.), and the signature. The photocopy should be clear and legible.
Note: If a passport is not available, a notarized photocopy of a valid government issued drivers license may be substituted as long as it has your signature, personal details, and photo.
B. One (1) Financial Reference Letter. The financial reference
letter can be from any bank, brokerage firm, credit union, insurance company,
trust company, or finance company. The letter should be on the financial
institutions letterhead, and should include the signature of an official,
and the contact information (address, telephone, fax, email, etc.). There
is no specific format that the reference letter must be written in, however,
we have provided an example below for your reference.

Documentation requirements are subject to change without notice.
** Brokerage firms other than our correspondent brokers may require other
documentation.
C. Account Applications: If you wish to be the signatory on the account, then you must also sign the account applications. There are only three simple forms, which include the corporate resolution, the Debit Card/Checkbook application, and a questionnaire. As signatory, you can place trades, write checks, make wire transfers, access your account on the internet, etc.
For those clients that prefer to remain 100% anonymous without revealing their personal names to the brokerage firm, we offer nominee signatory services for additional confidentiality. In this case, we will provide one of the nominee directors as signatory for your corporate account. When you need to execute a transaction through your corporate account, you simply contact us with your request, and we will process it for you. We charge a US$1000 (or 1%, whichever is higher) annual administration fee for nominee signatory services.
The minimum account opening deposit is US$3000, which should be made by USD check or wire transfer. After the account is set up, additional deposits may be made by USD check, securities transfer, or by wire transfer. We will forward you the check deposit, securities transfer, and wire transfer instructions once the account is set up.

** Third party wire transfers are not permitted. Wire transfers out are only permitted to accounts with the same name. For example, "ABC Corp." can only wire funds to another account with the beneficiary name "ABC Corp.". For payments to third parties, you must use the checkbook or MasterCard debit card. We recommend that if you need to make payments to third parties by wire transfer, you should set up a corporate bank account instead of a brokerage account.
*** Internal transfers (journals) to accounts within the same institution are permitted.
**** Acceptable deposits are USD Checks (personal or bank certified checks), wire transfers, or publicly traded securities. Unacceptable deposits are cash, money orders, travelers checks, double endorsed checks, foreign items/thrift withdrawal orders, returned checks, and checks referring to more than one account number.
