LOL CEO words ...seem like LVB ( LV bag haha ) could be a good growth driver . $3B provision ....wow envy of many banks . 
&ldquo Our record operating performance in one of the most challenging periods on record attests to the quality of our franchise and nimble execution. Business momentum was sustained in the fourth quarter and our pipeline for loans and fee income is healthy,&rdquo says DBS CEO Piyush Gupta.
  &ldquo We have been proactive through the crisis and enter the year with new growth platforms. Lakshmi Vilas Bank in India and the securities joint venture in China will enhance our presence in both key markets," he says.
  " Initiatives such as the Digital Exchange, supply chain digitalisation and efforts to broaden wealth management to the mass market will reinforce our leadership in digital finance. These platforms will strengthen our ability to continue supporting customers and delivering shareholder returns,&rdquo he adds.

- GP reserves in excess of regulatory requirements
- Conservative stance on SP for existing NPA
- LVB asset quality risks decisively dealt with
Business Outlook   
▪ Latest economic data support strong economic rebound for 2021
▪ Strong January performance provides head start to year
- Higher income yoy despite full impact of post-Covid NIM pressure
- Treasury Markets income up significantly
- Fee income up from high year-ago base from broad-based improvements
- Strong loan and deposit growth momentum
I am looking forward for DBS to return to $28 by this year DYODD

DBS FULL-YEAR 2020 NET PROFIT AT SGD 4.72 BILLION,
OPERATING PROFIT BEFORE ALLOWANCES AT RECORD DESPITE HEADWINDS FROM COVID-19 AND LOWER RATES
* * * Fourth-quarter net profit at SGD 1.01 billion SINGAPORE, 10 February 2021 &ndash DBS Group reported net profit of SGD 4.72 billion for full-year 2020, 26% below the previous year&rsquo s record. Total allowances more than quadrupled to SGD 3.07 billion as general allowances of SGD 1.71 billion were conservatively set aside for potential risks arising from the pandemic. Profit before allowances rose 2% to a new high of SGD 8.43 billion. Total income was stable at SGD 14.6 billion despite the economic disruption caused by the pandemic. Net interest income fell 6% as a 27 basis point fall in net interest margin was partially offset by constant currency loan growth of 4%. Fee income was stable while other non-interest income rose 32% as gains from  investment securities tripled. Expenses declined 2% to SGD 6.16 billion as costs were kept in check
imho , this is a great set of result under pandemic situation ......Profit could be $2B a quarter if not for the allowances. 
CEO has put it as conservatively ....its SUPER conservative for such large allowances. Dividend maintained at 18c per qtr. 
I would be very surprise what this could be use for come end 2021 .  DYODD
Happy investing.
