By the way, I find it also confusing how SBI settles stock purchases. They say it takes three days to deliver the assets to the account? I am happy that they only took one day to show up but at any European/US bank the settlement is instantaneous. Settlements for stock or mutual fund trades have ne...

I checked the prospectus here: https://emaxis.am.mufg.jp/fund/253425.html Unfortunately, the only relevant statement I could find in the prospectus was that the assets are managed "according to the trust agreement". I guess there is no way around looking into further documents. Most ETFs a...

Another big one being premature ejection of tax protected cash every time a dividend is paid out. Is this issue related to the tax free investment limits? Meaning that if the cash is ejected you need to invest it again and this reduces your tax free investment amounts? As far as I understand, there...

I see. Thank you for clarifying all of this. Indeed the transaction was projected at somewhere like 591 000. So until everything is settled, it will probably mark the additional 26 000 buffer as "lost". Still, quite an unpleasant experience to suddenly see a 4.5% "loss" show up o...

I was surprised today by the NISA interface showing me a 4.5% loss despite the stock market not moving: https://i.ibb.co/JH59JNh/Screenshot-From-2025-01-07-11-30-33.png The strange thing is: I put 600 000 into the account. My asset balance...

I will simply test this hypothesis. Will report if they complain about something!

I have the exact same problem and here is an image of the form. The white boxes are pre-filled by SBI or self-filled. https://i.ibb.co/0qVmmGm/sbi-application-missing-fields.jpg What is especially unclear is the account number (upper right) given that a linked bank account number should have one mor...

I have an SMBC (not Prestia) account and find it incredibly bothering to view the account statements on the cell phone. I tried to navigate the menu to somehow figure out how to have pdfs of account statements sent to my email address. Either google translating screenshots failed me or there is no s...
