According to SC Bank Korea, clients will be eligible for the “Golden Dollar Event” after subscribing to the bank’s dollar-denominated products such as foreign currency account, fund, insurance and special money trust for the first time.
SC Bank Korea will randomly select twenty-six winners; one for first place, ten for second place and fifteen for third place. The first place winner will get a gold two-dollar bill made of 15 grams (0.5 ounce) of gold, while the second and the third place winners will be given 7.5 grams and 3.75 grams, respectively.
In order to enter the event, the amount deposited in customers’ accounts, whether it be in won or dollar, should not decrease compared to the previous month. Customers who qualify for the “Golden Dollar Event” will also get a favorable exchange rate when trading in foreign currency, the bank added.
