On behalf of Prof. Tommy Koh and Dr Kwee Liong Keng, it is my great pleasure to invite you to the Pontiac Land-IPS Thought Leaders One-table Lunch with Mr Piyush Gupta, Chief Executive Officer of DBS Group.
DBS was founded in 1968 as the Development Bank of Singapore, tasked with the responsibility of financing Singapore's fledgling industries and growing new ones. After fulfilling this mission, it became a commercial bank, listed on the stock exchange. More than 50 years on, DBS has matured into a world-class institution. The group is at the forefront of leveraging digital technology to re-invent banking, and incorporates a full range of banking services seamlessly into people’s daily lives. DBS was recently named “World’s Best Bank” by Euromoney, “Global Bank of the Year” by The Banker and “Best Bank in the World” by Global Finance. No other bank has achieved this feat of holding three of the most prestigious global best bank honours at the same time. DBS has also received countless other accolades on the regional and local fronts. These include the title of ASEAN’s most valuable brand for seven consecutive years, and being consistently recognised as one of Singapore’s top brands. At his 2019 National Day Rally speech, Prime Minister Lee singled out DBS for praise on its policy of re-skilling its staff.
Join us as we engage Mr Piyush Gupta in a discussion on embracing digital transformation, constantly pushing boundaries and staying ahead of the curve.
