DBS toppled by Bank Central Asia as region's largest bank

Published Fri, Feb 12, 2016 · 04:30 AM

    [SINGAPORE] Bank Central Asia, controlled by Indonesia's second-richest person, Budi Hartono, overtook DBS Group Holdings Ltd this month as Southeast Asia's largest lender by value, with a market capitalisation of US$24.5 billion.

    The Jakarta-based bank's shares have continued to rise this year as its Indonesia focus shields it from slowing growth in Greater China. DBS is Singapore's biggest bank.
