DBS says AI and data analytics initiatives generated about $1 bil as CEO sees agentic AI systems ahead DBS Group' s CEO Tan Su Shan believes geopolitical fragmentation and the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) are reshaping banking. Both trends are expected to create new opportunities across wealth management, payments and digital assets. Companies are diversifying supply chains, currencies and investments as the global economy becomes more multipolar, Tan notes in the bank' s FY2025 annual report. DBS expects to benefit as clients seek financial partners capable of navigating cross-border trade, financing flows and risk management in that environment. " In an increasingly fragmented, volatile and complex operating landscape, we continue to outperform by leveraging our core strengths as a Dependable, Diversifier, Digital and Disruptor bank," she writes. Alongside these macro shifts, DBS is accelerating its use of AI across the organisation. The bank generated about $1 billion in economic value from AI/machine learning and data analytics initiatives in FY2025. More than 2,000 models were deployed across over 430 use cases during the year, expanding the role of machine intelligence across areas ranging from software development to client service. " Our early and sustained investments in data and technology have established a robust foundation for industrialising AI across hundreds of meaningful use cases. This positions us to harness the game-changing potential of generative AI and agentic AI,&rdquo says Tan. The update reinforces a strategy DBS has pursued for several years. The bank has invested heavily in technology while maintaining a focus on financial discipline. " Our commitment to tracking business outcomes ensures that capital is allocated only to initiatives with proven traction, while allowing for course-correction for those that fall short," she notes, adding that DBS applies " the same level of rigour" to its AI approach as it does to other capital allocation decisions. AI moves deeper into daily operations In 2021, DBS was one of only two banks globally to publicly disclose the economic impact of its data analytics and AI initiatives. The $1 billion reflects gains from such programmes deployed across multiple business units. One example is DBS-GPT, the bank' s internal large language model system. It gives employees role-based access to more than four million DBS policies and content, enabling staff to retrieve guidance quickly and resolve operational questions faster. The bank is also redesigning workflows to embed AI more deeply into daily work. DBS completed nine Operating Model Transformation initiatives in 2025, aimed at re-engineering processes for human-AI collaboration, enhancing workflows and reskilling staff while implementing simplified, adaptive organisational structures. Some of the clearest productivity gains have emerged within the bank' s technology teams. Generative AI now automates tasks such as test-case generation and user-story documentation. Work that once took months can now be completed in weeks, while greater end-to-end automation has also strengthened operational resilience. Customer-facing services are also evolving. DBS Joy, the bank' s generative AI-enabled chatbot launched in July 2025 for corporate banking clients, has been used by more than 20,000 corporate and SME customers. This helped lift customer satisfaction scores by 23%. The next stage of the bank' s AI strategy will involve systems capable of operating more independently. " With agentic AI gaining prominence, we foresee a transition from AI as a copilot to AI operating on autopilot as we integrate agents with autonomous capabilities into workflows to unlock new possibilities for our people. Governance remains paramount and our robust Responsible AI framework provides a firm foundation in understanding how best to deploy AI agents safely," states Tan. DBS is also investing in upskilling and reskilling programmes to help employees adapt to roles augmented by machine intelligence. " We fully anticipate that the pace of AI development will continue to be breathtaking. However, rather than being swayed by hype, we will remain grounded in our approach to be an AI-enabled bank with a heart, where our people and AI work synergistically to better serve our customers,&rdquo she notes. Tokenisation and RMB clearing Alongside AI, DBS is expanding its presence in blockchain-based financial infrastructure. The bank launched Singapore' s first tokenised money-market fund with Franklin Templeton and completed what it described as the world' s first over-the-counter cryptocurrency options inter-bank trade. Tan linked the bank' s digital assets push to the passing of the Genius Act, US legislation that established a regulatory framework for stablecoins and programmable money, saying it had accelerated broader market adoption of tokenisation. Its DBS Token Services platform allows corporate clients to use tokenised deposits to conduct programmable value transfers around the clock. The initiative reflects a broader push to develop financial products built on blockchain infrastructure. Besides that DBS is also the sole Singapore bank appointed as a renminbi (RMB) clearing institution, a designation Tan cited as a competitive advantage as corporate clients seek to diversify trade corridors and establish alternative payment pathways in a multipolar world. " Whether in currencies, supply chains or investments, the impetus to diversify, especially to regions with strong rule of law and market stability, will present significant opportunities for DBS," she writes. |

DBS sees opportunities in climate adaptation and nature on track to cut financed emissions of most sectors Lender&rsquo s sustainability report discloses that 15% of management&rsquo s remuneration is tied to ESG matters [SINGAPORE] South-east Asia&rsquo s largest lender DBS has identified climate adaptation as a medium to long-term business opportunity in its latest sustainability report released on Monday (Mar 9). The bank noted that mobilising capital towards adaptation has become critical, alongside mitigation efforts, with the world reaching climate thresholds. DBS chief sustainability officer Helge Muenkel said at a media briefing that climate adaptation is becoming a key area of focus, and the bank will be making some announcements in this area this year. The sustainability report &ndash the first that is aligned with International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) recommendations after the new disclosure requirement came into effect for Straits Times Index constituents &ndash also stated that the bank was exploring nature-related financing, as it recognises the substantial economic value that a nature-positive future presents. While DBS has incorporated climate adaptation and nature considerations into some of its previous transactions, this is the first time the bank has stated that it is looking at these two nascent areas of financing as business opportunities over the medium to long-term. Climate adaptation refers to measures aimed at helping society prepare better for, and reduce vulnerabilities to, climate impacts. It has often been seen as the poorer cousin of climate mitigation, especially among the private sector, as mitigation projects, such as renewables, have business models that have proven to be commercially viable. Adaptation projects, such as coastal defences, however, are typically seen as non revenue-generating. The volumes of nature-related financing, which refers to capital flows aligned with protecting and restoring natural ecosystems, are also low, due to challenges in data standardisation in biodiversity, as well as inadequate policy and regulatory support. However, the bankability of adaptation projects can be improved when adaptation measures are embedded in infrastructure projects. Muenkel gave an example of how renewable projects already have requirements for heat resistance. &ldquo They have ways around this. For example, you can have hybrid projects, projects that are adaptation and mitigation. Or other structuring aspects. So there is going to be a huge part for the private sector to play,&rdquo he said. The 2025 sustainability report also provided an update on the bank&rsquo s net-zero progress. Portfolio emissions reductions for five sectors it has set decarbonisation targets for &ndash power, oil and gas, automotive, aviation and real restate &ndash were on track. As with previous years, the steel and shipping sectors were off course. Excluding loan repayments, DBS has committed a cumulative sum of S$102 billion in sustainable financing as at the end of last year. It also facilitated S$41 billion in sustainable bond issuances in 2025. Under the new ISSB requirements, DBS also disclosed &ndash for the first time &ndash that 15 per cent of a scorecard used to measure compensation for its management was tied to ESG matters. Transition finance Out of the S$102 billion, only a small portion are transition-labelled loans, which refer to instruments where the proceeds are used to finance the decarbonisation efforts of carbon-intensive companies. DBS declined to disclose the exact amount or proportion of such loans, though Muenkel said the number of such deals completed in the past year was &ldquo in the single digits&rdquo . The bank updated its transition finance framework last year to expand the scope of economic activities eligible for transition financing, as well as strengthen governance around the use of the &ldquo transition&rdquo label. While the number of transition loans are small, Muenkel said the pipeline of deals was growing, and he expects an increase in such transactions this year. &ldquo This is now slowly getting momentum. If I simply look at the proposals we are now getting in, clients and relationship managers are getting excited about this,&rdquo he added. Power sector Financed emissions from the power sector in 2025 came in at 167 kg of carbon dioxide per megawatt hour (kgCO2/MWh), down from 208 kgCO2/MWh in the previous year, as the bank continued its shift towards cleaner technologies. Renewable energy players now make up 63 per cent of the bank&rsquo s portfolio, up from 62 per cent previously. However, countries in Asia remain reliant on natural gas and coal to ensure energy system resilience, especially amid heightened energy security and energy affordability concerns. &ldquo This leads to the postponement of coal plant retirements, further exacerbated with repowering decommissioned facilities to address surging energy demand,&rdquo read the report. DBS previously stated that it was looking to participate in the early shutdown of coal-fired power plants, and had been serving as the financial adviser to sovereign wealth fund Indonesia Investment Authority on what could potentially be the country&rsquo s first such transaction, involving the Cirebon-1 coal plant. The country&rsquo s state-owned utility company PLN recently announced it was scrapping plans to bring forward the shutdown of the plant, citing extremely high costs. When asked about DBS&rsquo appetite for such transactions given Indonesia&rsquo s policy U-turn, Muenkel said the bank was still committed to coal phase-out, and is engaged in a pilot transaction with a Philippine coal plant by the South Luzon Thermal Energy Corporation. The pilot is exploring the use of transition credits &ndash a new type of carbon credit that is generated when a coal plant is retired early and replaced by renewables &ndash in improving the commercial viability of coal phase-out transactions. &ldquo These things are hard... And unfortunately, it&rsquo s an ecosystem play. If individual players want to do that, it&rsquo s fine. But the government needs to be okay, the policymakers need to be okay. Sometimes it&rsquo s even the regional municipality... &ldquo We remain absolutely committed to the basic idea. There are no mandates to shut them down... We have to do something about it, and only because it&rsquo s hard, we&rsquo re not going to give up,&rdquo he added. Oil and gas Absolute financed emissions from oil and gas fell to 20.4 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) in 2025. The bank has revised its methodology for this sector and recalculated its baseline, as well as its 2030 and 2050 targets. So it cannot be compared with the 2024&rsquo s portfolio emissions. DBS is on track to meet its 2030 target for the sector, as the lender continues aligning its financing to prioritise lower-carbon initiatives, while reducing exposure to carbon-intensive borrowers across the oil and gas value chain, read the report. Nonetheless, oil demand in Asia is expected to increase up to 40 per cent by 2040 as energy demand surges, as demand growth shifts from China towards India and South-east Asia. It also noted that natural gas remains the practical transitional fuel, with liquefied natural gas imports expected to rise over the next decade, with South-east Asia potentially moving from being a net exporter to a net importer by 2030. Aviation The emission intensity for the aviation sector saw a slight uptick to 0.84 kg of CO2 per passenger-kilometre for 2025, though it remains on track to meet the bank&rsquo s target. Nonetheless, DBS noted that many of its clients already operate relatively efficient fleets, and future challenges to decarbonise may arise due to the limited availability of sustainable aviation fuel. Steel and shipping Like in previous years, steel and shipping continued to be laggards. The weighted emissions intensity of DBS&rsquo shipping portfolio was 24.1 per cent above the 2025 recommended target. Though lower than 2024&rsquo s 28 per cent, it still underperformed relative to the sector&rsquo s decarbonisation pathway, which has been revised to the International Maritime Organization&rsquo s 2023 net-zero trajectory. The bank said this was due primarily to the financing of shuttle tankers, which was committed before setting these decarbonisation targets. Excluding these shuttle tankers, the sector&rsquo s emissions intensity would have gone down by between 9 and 10 per cent. &ldquo The shipping industry faces challenges in reducing reliance on oil-based fuels, compounded by high costs, limited supply and operational constraints. As decarbonisation targets accelerate against the reference pathway, meeting the targets will remain challenging in the absence of strong policy and technology drivers,&rdquo read the report. As for steel, emissions intensity came in at 2.16 kg of CO2e per kg. As with the oil and gas sector, the portfolio emissions for steel cannot be compared with 2024, as the bank has shifted from a global reference pathway to a regional one for the sector, and recalculated its baseline and targets. The shift was made to better reflect the distinct challenges of the lender&rsquo s Asia-focused portfolio, and is aligned with the complexities and pace of the region&rsquo s steel-sector transition. The sector remains off track due to DBS&rsquo substantial exposure to Indian and Chinese steelmakers &ndash which predominantly use carbon-intensive blast furnaces &ndash and significantly limit the pace of decarbonisation in the bank&rsquo s portfolio. &ldquo The entrenched technological and policy barriers facing the sector make it difficult for banks alone to drive the sector&rsquo s transition,&rdquo read the report. |

DBS CEO Tan Su Shan receives S$9.6 million pay package for 2025 in first year at helm This compares with the S$17.6 million remuneration received by ex-CEO Piyush Gupta in 2024 [SINGAPORE] DBS chief executive officer Tan Su Shan received S$9.6 million in total compensation for the 12 months ended Dec 31, 2025, covering both her first nine months at the helm and the period she served as deputy CEO earlier in the year. Tan&rsquo s remuneration comprised S$975,250 in salary, a S$3.7 million cash bonus, S$4.9 million in deferred compensation and S$68,694 in non-cash components, including club, car and driver benefits, DBS&rsquo annual report released on Monday (Mar 9) indicated. The figure excludes a retention award of S$737,250, which the bank said serves as a retention tool and compensates employees for the time value of deferred compensation. The S$9.6 million figure compares with the S$17.6 million pay package former CEO Piyush Gupta received for FY2024, his final full year in the role, before Tan took over in March 2025. For FY2025, Gupta received S$4.2 million in compensation for the period he served as CEO from Jan 1 to Mar 28, 2025. This comprised S$369,048 in salary, a S$1.8 million cash bonus, S$2 million in deferred compensation and S$42,297 in non-cash components. Tan succeeded Gupta on Mar 28, 2025. &ldquo Under her leadership, the bank continued to deliver a solid financial performance,&rdquo DBS said. &ldquo This was despite the challenging operating environment marked by macroeconomic uncertainty and rate headwinds.&rdquo On Feb 9, DBS reported a 3 per cent fall in full-year net profit to S$10.9 billion for FY2025, due mainly to the implementation of the global minimum tax in Singapore. Total income and profit before tax nevertheless rose to record highs of S$22.9 billion and S$13.1 billion, respectively. Return on equity stood at 16.2 per cent &ndash down from 18 per cent in FY2024 &ndash but within the bank&rsquo s 15 to 17 per cent medium-term target range and several percentage points above local and global peers, DBS noted. The lender&rsquo s market capitalisation crossed US$100 billion in June 2025 and stood at US$124 billion at the end of the year, placing it among the top 25 banks globally by market capitalisation, it added. On an aggregate basis, DBS&rsquo senior management received S$83.1 million in total compensation, including Tan&rsquo s package. The median increase in total compensation for senior management who were members of the Group Management Committee in both 2024 and 2025 was 9.5 per cent. The lender does not disclose the salaries of its top five key executives, apart from the CEO, for competitive reasons. &ldquo Doubling down&rdquo Looking ahead, Tan and DBS chairman Peter Seah said in a joint letter that while an &ldquo increasingly bifurcated world&rdquo presents complexities, it is also creating &ldquo structural growth opportunities&rdquo . &ldquo These include rising intra-Asia and Asia-Gulf Cooperation Council trade and investment flows,internationalisation of the renminbi, as well as wealth opportunities for our core markets as retail and institutional investors look to diversify from the concentration of US dollar assets,&rdquo they wrote. Against these &ldquo megatrends&rdquo , the lender&rsquo s longstanding focus on high-return structural growth areas &ndash wealth management, transaction banking, treasury customer sales and its coverage of global financial institutions &ndash &ldquo remains unchanged&rdquo . &ldquo If anything, we are doubling down on them,&rdquo the duo added. Shares of DBS : D05 -1.25% were trading 1.3 per cent lower at S$54.31 as at 4.20 pm on Monday |

Technically DBS already broke below its upward trend line a few weeks back.
Was likely to go back to support around 54 to 55. Breaking this it will go to 50 to 51. |
