Trading platform ProsperUs stops accepting new accounts, will shutter on Nov 30
Users have until Oct 31 to close all open positions and mutual fund units; any remaining will be closed or sold by parent company CGS International by Nov 3
[SINGAPORE] ProsperUs, a trading platform owned by financial services provider CGS International, is no longer accepting new account applications, and will shutter on Nov 30.
This was announced by the platform through an e-mail and on its website, which said that a decision had been made to consolidate systems for a more holistic approach to the customers’ trading experience. Besides moving to other trading platforms owned by CGS International, existing ProsperUs users may also transfer their holdings to a brokerage operated by a different company.
A schedule on the ProsperUs website shows that no new positions may be opened from Aug 11, with existing positions set to “reduce-only” mode. The last date for customers to get a fee waiver for transferring their holdings is Oct 17, after which there will be a charge.
Users have until Oct 31 to close all open positions and mutual fund units; any remaining after that will be closed or sold by CGS International by Nov 3.
Customers can withdraw their balances and submit transfer-out requests until Nov 21; the last day they can download statements or documents from the platform is Nov 28.
ProsperUs ceases operations on Nov 30.
