A few reasons why some would:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Better <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/trade\/pricing\"><strong><em>fees structure<\/em><\/strong><\/a> suited for usage and volume of transactions &#8211; commission and platform fees vary greatly and depending on the style at which you trade\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Access to new markets, products and services<\/em><\/strong> on platform &#8211; features such as fractional shares, automatic investing are offered differently by different brokers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Discontinued service <\/em><\/strong>from an existing broker such as of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tdameritrade.com.sg\/retail-clients.html\">TD Ameritrade<\/a>.

With ACATS Transfers, you can transfer your securities over to a new broker easily and seamlessly in less than two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is ACATS?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Automated Customer Account Transfer Service (ACATS)&nbsp;is a securities transfer process which allows you to transfer securities such as US stocks and ETFs to another broker without having to buy or sell your positions. You may choose to fully or partially transfer your assets from your current broker to your Syfe Brokerage account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I benefit from ACATS Share Transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Avoid sales charges and commission fees<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of having to sell and rebuy your positions, transferring your shares via ACATS would mean skipping commission and trading fees associated.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fees that can be potentially charged to you are, however, transfer-out fees charged by your current broker as highlighted below. The fees are often changed per security (or stock), but some brokers offer a maximum cap. <strong>There is no fee when you are transferring in to Syfe Brokerage.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"587\" data-attachment-id=\"13214\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/acats-share-transfers-how-to-switch-brokers-to-syfe-brokerage\/acats-fees-9\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9.png\" data-orig-size=\"2396,1374\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"ACATs-fees-9\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-300x172.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-1024x587.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-1024x587.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-1024x587.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-300x172.png 300w, https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-768x440.png 768w, https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-1536x881.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-2048x1174.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-696x399.png 696w, https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-1068x612.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-1920x1101.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ACATs-fees-9-732x420.png 732w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Avoid foreign exchange risks and tax implications<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is especially true if you are an investor in Singapore with US securities. Depending on where the foreign exchange rates are at the time of switch, you may be potentially losing (or gaining) from rate differences at the time of trade.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re selling securities at a profit, which may constitute income (depending on your residency), there can be unnecessary taxes that you\u2019d have to pay with the sale of the securities. ACATs help you avoid this process all together with the transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does ACATS Share Transfer work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Syfe will coordinate with your current broker to transfer-in your positions. There\u2019s a process that\u2019s established through National Securities Clearing Corporation (NSCC)\u200b\u200b. As an investor, you may check out the following steps and timelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Download current account statement from current broker<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create an account with Syfe Brokerage and register with Singpass<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Submit a <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1_JArJFjYK7zqbviKsVnTlDMgQ7QTfJLk\/view\">Securities Transfer Request<\/a> form to mail to <a href=\"mailto:support.sg@syfe.com\">support.sg@syfe.com<\/a> with subject title: [ACATS Transfer]<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Syfe will notify you once request has been received (2-3 working days)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Syfe will make a request to your current broker to transfer the shares (up to 10 working days)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check your Trade app if positions match and confirm\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more about how the process works on our <a href=\"https:\/\/help.syfe.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/4414212796313-Is-there-an-option-to-transfer-shares-from-another-brokerage-to-Syfe-Trade-\">FAQ page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best broker to transfer TD Ameritrade shares to?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/brokerage\/us-stocks?source=brokerage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Syfe Brokerage<\/a> offers unlimited US trades for the first 90 days for every new client.
