How to invest in SUOC from India
Step 1
Open your Paasa account

Step 2
Add funds from your Indian bank account
Remit up to $250,000 a year under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme. Your bank converts the rupees to US dollars at its rate on the day you remit, and Interactive Brokers converts the dollars to CHF when you buy.
Step 3

Find the fund by its ticker, SUOC, on the SIX Swiss Exchange, and place your order.
Why invest in SUOC from India
What SUOC holds
