DBS aims for wealth business to hit S$300b AUM by 2023
Asset target translates to 7-8 per cent annual growth rate over next few years, outpacing industry
Singapore
DBS is gunning for a 7 to 8 per cent annual growth in assets under management (AUM) over the next couple of years, bringing its current AUM base of about S$234 billion to S$300 billion by 2023, its newly minted group head of consumer banking and wealth management business Lim S Sim told The Business Times.
This growth target will push ahead of industry growth rates, and comes as DBS has in part bulked up by completing its buyout of the Asian private banking business of Societe Generale in Singapore and Hong Kong in 2014, with the wealth business now making up 20 per cent of total group income.
