HOW IT WORKS

On the deposit set up date, you select:

  • a deposit currency, and
  • an alternate currency, and
  • a deposit tenure. The conversion rate is based on your selections to come up with an agreed interest rate.

On the fixing date*, Standard Chartered will compare the conversion rate with the relevant market rate to determine whether the principal and interest will be repaid in the deposit currency or your alternate currency.

* Fixing date will be indicated on the deposit confirmation.

##

WHAT OPTIONS CAN YOU ENJOY WITH PREMIUM DEPOSIT?
You can choose from 11 currencies – AUD, CAD, CHF, EUR, GBP, HKD, JPY, NZD, RMB, SGD and USD as your deposit or alternate currency and set the tenure according to your needs. The minimum deposit amount is just USD10,000 or its equivalent.
