Good to know OCBC has such good service, pal of mine is a client of Bos as well and praises them to no end.
I don't think much of Citigold as well (Or Citibank for that matter). Reckon they have a mandate to milk their clients.

I used citi private client before in sg. Equally bad. They wanted to charge me 50 basis points for bond trades. Now that is fine if agreed before hand. But the rm dare to call me and ask if can get me 0.4 better, we split the 0.4. Meaning now their comm become 0.7! What rubbish. I also encountered such lousy behavior with real estate agent before.
As for forex, 100 basis is ridiculous. I am pay about 0.1 above for usd. Meaning if trading 1.247, I buy at 1.248. Basically 10 basis points. Using American pb.
