The only problem is it’s limited to few ETFs
True, that is an issue.
Although they at least have the most popular iShares options available
They don’t have EXUS or anything alike, that is a pity
Ouups… I just got charged for Client proxy voting subscription (7.58chf or 30eur/yr). I was not aware of the costs. I should read before I click.
I think with my few NESN shares I’m not an activist investor, so I can keep my mouth shout.
I absolutely have EXUS on Saxo.
But not for Autoinvest
I didn’t see WEBG is now in CHF.
Pretty interesting and that would be awesome if they add it to Autoinvest ![]()
I hope there will be a WEBN in CHF ![]()
you can ask Amundi to list it in CHF on Six and then you can ask Saxo to list it to buy. That’s what also happened with WEBG
guess what… still have the proxy voting rights. An activation is valid for one year, even if you cancel it right away. I got charged, and I will be charged two more times every quarter.
(btw. Saxo help AI sux huuugly. And calling the support goes directly to UK… the first sentence was: Hi, do you like to have a german speaker?)
You could just contact Ester Morton (from the Q&A) talks I guess.
Waiting on my activation, taking two weeks now…
Last thursday i opened an account with Saxo. It took less than 3hrs for my account to be active, so was pretty smooth for me.
People lets lobby that they include WEBG in the autoinvest function.
Three weeks and still “checking documents”. ![]()
According to a podcast there are currently no plans for:
- Mortgage
- Payroll account
- Payment card
However, there are plans for 3a at Saxo:
Wir schauen uns 3a ganz genau an und ich bin optimistisch, dass wir dort in Zukunft eine supertolle Lösung anbieten können. (..) Und Crypto ist auch ein Thema. (..) Crypto in Form eines Wallets könnte ein Thema sein, aktuell liegt die Priorität jedoch auf 3a.
However, to me, it sounded like this isn’t a top priority within Saxo and that it will take years to implement. Source: https://pca.st/god6lnmi (from minute 52)
(Not recommended listening. It’s just two people, someone from the podcast and someone from Saxo, praising each other. Aimed more at people who don’t invest yet)
I opened my account in the first week of January. One week later I got an e-mail and a call regarding some more documents. These were provided on the same day. That was four weeks ago.
Since then they are being checked in the “backoffice” and I have not received any replies to my e-mails and calls are ignored.
This is my first time being ghosted by a bank. ![]()
Not a good look for SAXO but it aligns with the reviews you can find online that as soon as you want to invest a larger sum you will be scrutinized.
Somehow DeGiro and IBKR know how to run their game while SAXO clearly doesn’t.
So maybe the strategy should be to open the account with a small investment and then increase it.
You’re asked what sum you want to invest in the next year or so, so that would mean lying on the application.. ![]()
In this podcast, Saxo said that they support department are completely overloaded. And since this was already said a year ago, one wonders how/when they intend to change this…
Especially with my own money, I would never commit a large part of my assets to a new service without personally testing it.
Two years ago, I opened an account with Yuh. I started off with Fr. 1’000. After three months, I become more comfortable with Yuh, so I transferred more money to them, increasing my total assets to around 60k. At that point, Yuh gave me 30 days to fill out additional forms and answer additional questions. If I hadn’t replied, my account would have been blocked.
I see this as a perfectly legitimate proceeding for both sides.
(side note: after becoming more financially literate, I closed my account at Yuh again and moved the money to IB.)
