OCBC’s Bank of Singapore eyes China operation

The private banking operation will be targeting mostly entrepreneurs who are looking at wealth-boosting investment opportunities.

CEO Renato de Guzman was quoted in a Reuters report as saying, "With the renminbi appreciation and with exports slowing down, there is a shift for the high net worths to look into other ways to generate more income, grow their wealth.”

The report said Bank of Singapore has no plans to build an onshore business in India and South Asian clients will continue to be served by a team of 100 bankers in Singapore, Hong Kong, Dubai and London.

Bank of Singapore

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
