I was offered the opportunity to open an account by my former employer. They did require a guarantor willing to guarantee 1.2m NT$, which put an end to it as far as I was concerned.
This was 4 years ago, there’s a slight chance that things might have changed.
The sister in law approach sounds more promising, I would say.
Once the account is opened, make sure that you either have a local handle the transactions, or that the broker you deal with speaks English.
I thought all Chinese women were stock crazy. My grandma spends most of her day trading, and checking on her securities, chatting with other old women about investments. The employees at the banks, etc. know them all too well. But that’s HK; everyone there is either daytrading or gambling on soccer matches or horseracing.
Hell, on raceday, it’s like I have HK to myself. I love it!
My wife has this little device like a PDA except it’s for stock trading. First thing she does upon waking in the morning is go check how the markets did during the night. Then all day she’ll be sitting on the couch watching the Yankees ( ) and Korean soap operas ( ) while checking stock charts and business news on her device ( ). Fortunately, I’m at work during the day, so I miss out on the action.
