DBS to boost hiring of financial advisers in 2021

This will include hiring for the newly created insurance consultant role.

DBS will double its recruitment of financial planning advisers this year, with plans to hire more than 650 wealth planning managers and insurance consultants, a statement read.

The newly created insurance consultant role is supported by Manulife Singapore and allows for flexible hours and independence of a traditional financial advisor, whilst providing the institutional support and benefits akin to those enjoyed by DBS’ wealth planning managers.

The consultants will have access to resources from DBS and Manulife, including financial planning tools, training programmes, DBS’ broad customer base, and access to DBS meeting spaces in branches.

They will also be able to leverage insights from DBS NAV Planner, with the customer’s consent.

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.
