Just got a call today from Cornertrade. Correct, they recently implemented a 35 CHF/Quarter fee for passive investors. If you “trade” once each second quarter you have the Depot for free the full year.
- Trade 0 times in 1 year: total costs 140 CHF
- Trade 1 time per year, costs 70 CHF
- Trade 2 times per year in separate quarters: costs 0 CHF
until they change their mind again and charge you anyway…
At Swissquote I am currently at 16.61 CHF / Quarter. Total 66.44 CHF/Year. I was considering Cornertrade to avoid the Swissquote fee but now if I trade once a year I will be worst off… need to think…
