DBS pilots online tracker for cross-border corporate collections

Clients in Singapore and Hong Kong will be the first to try the service.

DBS is launching a real-time online tracker for cross-border collections for its global corporate clients, a statement read.

Powered by SWIFT Global Payments Innovation (gpi), more than 240,000 bank corporate and SME clients in Singapore and Hong Kong will be the first to benefit from the service for no additional fee.

Corporate clients will need to log into the bank’s online corporate banking portal, DBS IDEAL, to receive instant updates on where the incoming funds are in the payment chain.

In markets where regulations require additional information or supporting documents, clients can use DBS DigiDocs to transmit information and supporting documents digitally This solution is currently available in China, India, Vietnam, and will be piloted in Indonesia and Taiwan over the next few months.

DBS targets to expand the online tracker to China, India, Indonesia, Taiwan and Vietnam in the coming months.

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.
