Financial intermediaries are a fast-growing client segment in Asia and a key growth engine for Bank of Singapore. Against this backdrop, our recognition as Best Private Bank for Intermediaries is particularly meaningful.
Just two years ago, we embarked on a journey to transform and strengthen our service offering, platform and engagement in this segment. Transforming business lines is never easy, but the effort is especially rewarding when it is recognised.
This win belongs to the entire team – not just our frontline staff, but also our colleagues across investment solutions, family and wealth advisory, risk and compliance, and technology, to name a few – as well as our valued partners. Together, we continue to bring greater value to our clients.
