Frequently asked questions

Is HST.SI accumulating or distributing?

Lion-OCBC Securities Hang Seng TECH ETF (HST.SI) is an accumulating ETF, so its dividends are reinvested automatically inside the fund instead of paid out as cash. The value compounds in the share price, which keeps things simple since the dividends are reinvested for you instead of arriving as cash you would otherwise have to reinvest yourself.

What is the annual fee (TER) for HST.SI?

HST.SI has a total expense ratio (TER) of 0.58% per year. On a $10,000 holding that is roughly $58 a year, charged inside the fund rather than billed to you separately. A lower fee leaves more of the return compounding for you over time.

Can I buy HST.SI on Interactive Brokers?

Yes. HST.SI trades on SGX, SGD and is available to investors worldwide through Interactive Brokers (IBKR). IBKR is the most popular way to buy UCITS ETFs because of its low FX conversion cost (around 0.03%) and low trading commissions.
