HSBC Dual Currency Investment
More opportunities to potentially maximise your returns
HSBC’s Dual Currency Investment offers up to 42 currency pairings (as of 25 April 2023) with real time pricing – giving you even more opportunities to maximise your investment potentials.
You can take advantage of the exchange rate and gold pricing movements to gain potentially higher returns compared to ordinary fixed deposits. Besides, you have the flexibility to choose the currency pairing (base and linked currencies), tenure (ranging from 1 week to 3 months) and the conversion rate you feel most comfortable with.
What’s more, earn potentially higher returns when we pay your investment amount together with investment returns at maturity, which may either be in the base or linked currency depending on the exchange rate movements in respect of the currency pair.
If you use foreign currency regularly for your child’s educational expenses overseas or business interests abroad, Dual Currency Investment may be right for you.
Disclaimer: There are limits for investments into foreign currency assets for resident individuals with Domestic Ringgit Borrowing under Bank Negara Malaysia’s Foreign Exchange Policy (FEP). To learn more about the FEP and how it may affect you, please refer to our FEP guide.
