今收到 FirstTrade Email 一封,内容如下: (问题:该立刻卖掉这些基金,还是等它自
动liquidate ? FirstTrade 这样做(先套你买,然后在不合适的时机强迫你卖)合法吗?
有哪条联邦法规定外国人不能买美国国内基金?)
Recently, Firstrade’s clearing firm, Penson Financial, began enforcing the
prohibition of non-US customers buying and holding domestic (U.S. Registar)
mutual funds. Our review has determined that your account holds US Registar
mutual fund positions. Therefore, based upon this policy (set forth by the
mutual fund companies), please redeem (sell) the following mutual fund
position(s) before July 31, 2011 from your Firstrade account [xxx-xx916]:
Fund Symbol
XXXX
YYYY
ZZZZ
After you redeem these funds you may choose to invest your proceeds in other
securities such as Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). ETFs offer you benefits
such as diversification across indices, asset classes, and global markets,
and ETFs also offer low expense ratios, thereby maximizing your returns.
When choosing an ETF (or ETFs) to invest, Firstrade offers an ETF Center
designed to help you search for ETFs that meet your investing needs. Our 10
Commission-Free ETFs cover small-cap, mid-cap and commodity funds, emerging
markets and short-term to long-term bonds.
We realize that this is an inconvenience for you and we vow to make this an
effortless experience. However, action is required on your part before July
31, 2011. Failure to take action before this date will leave us no choice
but to liquidate the above referenced fund(s). |
