Index Fund & ETF Investing as a Kiwi Expat based in THAILAND

[ThailandNeb]

Hoping to get some advice from some investing gurus here.

I am a Kiwi that lives in Bangkok, married to a Thai and looking at living here long term.

I am wanting an easy low fee and tax optimised way to start an investment portfolio.

I have been researching SAXO as a platform and they look good, however would you recommend UK or SING as a base for the investment?

I would like to be accessing the Vanguard instruments predominantly and be adding savings every month or two.

Any help is appreciated.

My wife and I will also be doing a wee bit in the SET50, any advice on best low fee place to attack that also.

Thanks in advance! ????

i would go with interactive brokers over saxo as they have no custody fees only a monthly activity fee if you don't trade, but that is free if you have a balance over 100K (cash, stocks, bonds, etc)

 

very happy with them. easy to set up, minimal docs required and great support too

If you are working and paying tax in Thailand LTF and RMF funds are tax deductible.
