Opening bank account / investing in the taipei stock exchange as a foreigner

Well you can legally… however the banks in Taiwan love their xenophobic discrimination of all foreigners. And will refuse!!!

Even those who become Taiwanese! Enjoy that when you arrive here @Sandler

See the thread about Koko bank! Koko Bank’s xenophobic reasoning for denying "foreigners" the ability to open an account online - #261 by Mataiou

Oh and when you do set it up! They will give you a special foreign investor number and you will be restricted from things such as short selling and leverage! (Even with an aprc) because you’re a foreign devil who may crash the market if they allow more!
