It usually takes two working days to cancel a securities account. First, the investor should transfer all the funds in the account to the bank card before closing the account, and ensure that there is no transaction flow on the transfer day. When all the funds in the account are transferred to the bank card, investors can apply for account cancellation at the account business outlets with their ID cards to complete the account cancellation. If there is no balance in the account, investors can directly take their ID cards to the brokerage outlets for cancellation, so they can generally cancel their accounts on the same day. If you don't want to use it, you can leave the securities account open. If you are sure you don't want to use the original securities account, you can cancel it, so don't bother. A person can open up to three securities accounts, and those who sell securities must go to a securities company. The bound bank card is also a custodian bank. It is reasonable to say that if you don't trade for two or three years, you will automatically sell the card, but not if you bind the securities. There is no risk if you don't close your account. If you don't want to use it, you can cancel the account. If you don't close the account and there are no assets in the account, it will sleep for 2 years. The only impact is that you have to open an account with the same brokerage firm, and your brokerage firm will tell you that you can't open it at this time.
The steps to close the securities account are as follows:
1. The business department that opened the stock account before must be the brokerage business department that opened the stock account before, that is, where the stock account was opened, the stock account must be cancelled.
2. You can't apply for cancellation of stock accounts in other securities companies or other business departments of securities companies that open stock accounts.
3. According to the requirements of the brokerage business department, find the relevant person in charge of the business department and sign the list given to you by the brokerage business department.
4. After the signature of the relevant person in charge of each position in the brokerage business department, the stock account cancellation formalities shall be handled at the counter with the ID card.
5. On the second day or after completing the procedures for closing the stock account, go through the procedures for closing the securities capital account.
6. Note: You only need to bring your ID card to cancel your stock account.
7. However, the premise of closing the stock account is that stock trading cannot be carried out on the closing day, otherwise the stock account cannot be closed on the same day.
