how about fixed deposit in Bank of China here?
most china folks want to smuggle money out of china....esp those corruptedOriginally Posted by roly8
You want to reverse the trend and put in money inside China?
Having a china mistress is not a good idea. I am sure u can do better with the local stock.
there is no extradition treaty between china and singapore.
that's why folks from indonesia and china invest in singapore.
btw, the extradition treaty between indonesia/singapore has not been ratified by indonesia parliament.
similarly if TS run to china with his ill gotten gains, singapore govt also cannot extradit him
but i dont think anybody so far has help him with his problem?
cannot open china bank account in singapore and then use their priviliege banking to help him open account in china?
repatriation is difficult out of china. normally underground method need to pay 5% comm. else you can carry out using suitcase. it is very troublesome to go there to open acct. i reckon you are thinking that RMB will appreciate in future so you wanna keep RMB there? wat is the quantum you tinking abt? you can explore BOC or HSBC in sgp.. i think ICBC also got. not sure. they can open RMB acct now. next best thing is go money change exchnage soem RMB and put at home. every day can see also.
opening acct in china, unless you have biz there, really dun make much sense.
no problem, use hawala system.Originally Posted by 4wheels
if want to buy singapore dollar, pay rupiah to money changer in indonesia, and the broker will ask his contact in batam/singapore to deposit cash into account in singapore.

It is really easy to open a bank account in China.
3 month fixed-deposit, I think the interest is around 3%.

No lah.. Just bring your passport to any bank in China can open an account already... but maybe you have to wait as SGD is weakening fast now... Last time I change is normally 5.1 to 5.25.. now less than 5 already if I am not wrongOriginally Posted by roly8

This is forex play. I suppose putting FD into Malaysia banks is much safer and the interest rate is also around 3%. If the forex swings against you, just go JB and spend the MYR instead of changing back to SGD.
Hahaha... I trust RMB more..
Well, there are indeed two types of Chinese money: one traded within China: CNY and another traded outside China: CNH.
When you deposit in BOC or ICBC in Singapore, you are dealing with CNH.
When you deposit in a bank in ShenZhen, or any city in China, you are dealing with CNY.
These two are separated markets. Every year, an individual can only transfer accumulated USD 50K equivalent between CNH and CNY.
Of course, you can use a bag to transfer beyond that amount - at the risk of getting your principles confiscated by the officials (of course, they really don't want to do that and will give enough hints to pay coffee fees.)
Thanks,

When you are dealing with HK or Singapore, the rules are similar.
But when you start to deal with China, maybe the rules are similar to Indonesia rules: you cannot get answers from written documents, you get them from dinner tables.
Thanks alot, richard!Originally Posted by richwang
