### How do I buy AT&T shares?

From Malaysia, open an account with a broker that offers US shares (many local and app-based brokers do), convert ringgit to US dollars, then buy T. US shares trade one share at a time, not in lots of 100. Your broker will ask you to fill in a W-8BEN form, which tells the US you are not a US taxpayer. Malaysia has no income tax treaty with the US, so 30% of every dividend is withheld. Check the currency conversion fee too before you buy.

### How is this score calculated?

The overall score pools every measure across 5 weighted pillars: Business Strength, Financial Safety, Cash & Dividends, Price Fairness, and Risk. It uses the same rules as our Bursa scores.
