Frequently Asked Questions
I am a Non-Profit Organisation. Can I still take up the Corporate Wealth Management service?

Yes, you can, depending on your investment mandate. The Corporate Wealth Management service is suitable for schools, institutes of higher learning, clubs, religious, and charitable organisations.

What is an Accredited Investor (AI)?

An Accredited Investor is a corporate entity that meets specific Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) requirements and has opted in to be classified as such by the bank. This classification grants them access to a broader selection of investment products, while also entailing a reduced level of regulatory protection compared to non-Accredited Investors.

How does my company qualify as an Accredited Investor?

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) specifies criteria for a corporate entity to qualify as an Accredited Investor (AI). A corporation can achieve this status if its net assets exceed S$10 million (or its equivalent in a foreign currency), based on its most recent audited balance sheet. If audits are not required, a certified balance sheet dated within the last 12 months can be used.

Additionally, a corporation can also qualify as an Accredited Investor if its entire share capital is owned by accredited investors, or if it is a partnership (excluding a limited liability partnership) where every partner is an accredited investor.

Does my company need to be an Accredited Investor to invest?

No. While certain products require Accredited Investor status, DBS Corporate Wealth Management also offers a suite of investment options available to retail investors.

Can my company still be assessed as an Accredited Investor (AI) if I don’t meet the Corporate AI requirements?

Yes, your company can still be classified as an Accredited Investor if all the individual shareholders are classified as Accredited Investors themselves. To be an Accredited Investor (Individual):

  • You have net personal assets which exceed SGD $2 million (or its equivalent in a foreign currency); or
  • You have net financial assets (i.e. deposits and investment products) which exceed SGD $1million (or its equivalent in a foreign currency); or
  • Your income in preceding 12 months exceed SGD $300,000 (or its equivalent in a foreign currency)
Is there a minimum investment amount for this Corporate Wealth Management service?

The minimum investment amount is SGD 1 million. If you’re keen to start investing with a smaller amount, please contact us for advice. 

What are the fees and charges?

Fees and charges may vary depending on the investment product, account type, custody arrangements, transaction requirements, and your company’s banking setup. For details specific to your business, speak to a DBS Relationship Manager.

What types of asset offerings are available under DBS Corporate Wealth Management?

Asset offerings are grouped into Liquidity, Tactical, and Strategic categories. Each category includes options with different risk and return levels, so your company can consider solutions aligned with its investment objectives.

How do I choose between liquidity, short-term, and long-term investment options for my business?

Choose based on when your business may need the funds, how much risk it can accept, and what return objective it has. Liquidity and tactical options may suit near-term cash needs, while strategic options may suit longer-term goals.

Is Corporate Wealth Management risky?

All investments entail risk. At DBS, we have years of experience in managing investments from low to high risk. Rest assured, you can select a portfolio based on your risk appetite.

How do I get started with DBS Corporate Wealth Management?

Submit the online interest form and a DBS representative will contact you. If you proceed, DBS will guide you through documentation, custody account setup, and next steps.
