DBS Group (DBSM.SI), Southeast Asia’s biggest bank, said on Friday it would add hundreds of people to its wealth management business, as it seeks to grab a greater share of the fast-growing Asian private banking market.
The comments by CEO Piyush Gupta at a post-results briefing came after DBS recently poached Morgan Stanley’s (S.N) influential Southeast Asian private banker Tan Su Shan.
The bank earlier on Friday posted a 23% rise in quarterly profit, still disappointing investors given bumper profits at its domestic rivals.
