About the Investment Fund Unitholdings Transfer-in Service:

  • Customers who intend to transfer their investment fund unitholdings from other financial institutions or fund houses to Hang Seng Bank Limited (the “Bank”) should note that such transfers are subject to the consent of the fund managers and/or trustees of the investment funds and/or any other applicable restrictions. In addition, customers should bear the fees (if any) charged by the relevant financial institutions or fund houses in respect of the transfer-out of their investment fund unitholdings. For the relevant details, customers should check with the relevant financial institutions or fund houses and/or refer to the terms and conditions for the investment fund accounts held with the relevant financial institutions or fund houses (if applicable). The processing of the transfer-in of investment fund unitholdings will take around 4 weeks. Customers cannot redeem or switch the relevant fund unitholdings during the processing period. Retail banking customers should also note that the Bank will not accept any investment fund transfer-in applications with other financial institutions or fund houses which involve a change of beneficial ownership.
  • The investment fund unitholdings have to be transferred-in from other financial institutions or fund houses and then have to be registered and held in the name of Hang Seng (Nominee) Limited. Customers should note that registering their fund units in a nominee’s name instead of their own names can avoid the onerous administrative work involved, and can also save time and administrative formalities. Nevertheless, customers should be aware that in this case, even if they, as the investors, hold the beneficial interest in the fund units, they are not regarded in law as the “holders” of the fund units. Hence, the fund manager has no direct legal responsibilities towards them as the investors. In case any dispute arises, they can only resort to the distributor/nominee company but not the fund manager directly.
  • Please contact the Bank’s staff for details of the Investment Fund Unitholding Transfer-in Service.
