Serving both personal and priority banking clients, the branch features advanced digital and self-service capabilities such as an automated Cash Bag Deposit machine for business banking clients. Despite the pervasive digital technologies, the branch still preserves physical touchpoints like an accessible service counter to complement its online offering.

“Our clients have increasingly shown a preference for digital banking, and this doesn’t change when they step into a branch,” Andrew Chia, Head of Retail Banking, Standard Chartered Bank Singapore said in a statement.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
