Best Investment Banks in Singapore

DBS and Citi are amongst the most prestigious investment banks in Singapore.

DBS Bank Ltd in Singapore is the main subsidiary of DBS Group Holdings Ltd. The bank has been a key partner in spearheading and financing the growth of the nation's small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). DBS provides a broad range of banking and related financial products and services for individuals, companies and other financial institutions across Asia and the Middle East. In 2001, the Bank acted as the joint global coordinator for DBS Group's SGD 2.2 billion placement, the largest global placement offering by an ASEAN bank. In 2007, DBS acted as the sole manager and the major underwriter for the SGD 2.2 billion rights issue of Genting International, amidst bearish and volatile market conditions. It is also the joint lead manager for DBS Group's fully underwritten SGD 4.1 billion rights issue which closes on 20 January 2009.

DBS Bank has received many awards and accolades such as the Best Investment Bank in Singapore (Alpha South East Asia 2010), Best Bank in Singapore (Global Finance 2010 - World's Best Developed Market Banks), Best Domestic Equity House in Singapore (Asiamoney 2010 - Best Domestic Banks Awards), to name a few.
