Get Started With Dual Currency Investment

Perhaps you are considering diversifying your investment to capture other opportunities besides the stock market. Where then do you place your investments?

Though inherently risky, it may bring potentially higher returns, up to 30% p.a.1 HSBC offers one of the highest number of currency pairings2 with real time pricing.

 

DCI is also a good investment instrument to consider if you use foreign currency regularly for business interests abroad or to fund your child’s overseas education. Even if your child is due for college in the next few months or even a few years down the road, DCI can help you capitalise on currency movements to accumulate the currency you need.
