I sent 60 k in PHP to my own Philippine bank account from Europe. PH Bank will call you and ask, where the money comes from and what you are going to do with it here in the Philippines. No issues after that, the money was on my bank account 30 minutes later. No proof required for anything. No...

Barclays Hotline says the same than the HSBC one. You can read the details in my other post (see below). In short, both banks don't offer broker accounts, where the deposited money can be used to invest into stocks/ETF of your own choice...

I talked to HSBC. The minimum deposit requirement is only fulfilled as long as you hold the money within the Expat/Premier account. That account offers also investments, but own stock trading is not possible. Automatically, position transfer is not available. It is simply not a broker account...

I would like to jump into this conversation. I just opened a US LLC (non resident in US) and WISE refused my application as well. Reason: I don't have a proven business address. Residential is OK, but I need to supply a bill, lease, bank statement or similar addressed to my US LLC at that...
