Hi Anon,

iFast is listed on SGX, but for US Equities you can check out TD Ameritrade, Tiger Brokers and IBKR.

TD Ameritrade has 0 comissions but has a long wait to get your account opened (I heard it's about 3 months), and has a 25 USD withdrawal fee. The FX rates are not too bad, they use DBS' Treasures rate.

Tiger Brokers has a min fee of USD1.99, and a new DDA program with DBS that makes it convenient to deposit/withdraw funds. FX cost is roughly 0.3-0.4%.

IBKR has a maintainence fee (which will be waived for AUM 100k, which seems to be your case), has the best FX rates.

All are licensed by MAS.
