  • be clear and transparent to our customers, keep them fully informed;
  • be responsive to our customers' needs and requests, attend to complaints promptly and effectively.

DBS has taken proactive steps to build towards delivering fair dealing outcomes for our consumer banking customers in Singapore. We have:

  • strengthened our sales process, putting in expanded fact finding process, enhanced risk disclosure and additional customer-product suitability checks;
  • stepped up staff training and testing our staff on their product knowledge and skills regularly;
  • continued to ensure that our staff remuneration is based on a balanced scorecard approach, taking into account quality of the fact find process and customer satisfaction.
