Our banks and security firms adopts a ridiculous approach towards internet security. I suspect that the measures are directed by MAS.
I applied to receive e-statements of contract notes. They are sent to me with password protection. I do not know the password that were used. I could not open the statements for many months.
This morning, I went to SGX website, login to my CDP account, and searched all over the place to set my own password. I could not find it.
Maybe, the passwords are set by my securities firm. Anyway, it is confusing and troublesome. I never asked for this security. I do not consider it as important anyway.
The statements are received by e-mail, which require me to access with a password anyway.
I also have trouble with the quarterly change of passwords that is mandated in my login trading account, and the funny combinations of password.
I hope that MAS will stop directing the banks and security firms to implement impractical security arrangements. If they have to, they should adopt sensible (and not ridiculous) arrangements.
