๐ŸŒŸFor years, international fund managers dismissed the Singapore stock market as a slow moving retirement village - a dull boring market with old school banks , matured REITs & industrial conglomerates.  Not any more.

The Singapore market is now very much a vibrant market attracting global Institutional titans & ultra high net worth family offices looking for a safe haven to park their assets.

That is why my answer is A:  I am still bullish on $DBS(D05.SI)$ $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ & $UOB(U11.SI)$

When DBS launches a campaign to hire 500+ young local professionals to scale its technology & wealth pipelines, it sends a clear message:  Singapore is not just surviving the global capital migration, it is systematically dominating it.

Investing my money into our big 3 banks means I am choosing to collect great dividends while waiting for capital growth.

The banks have rewarded me well while the rest of the markets rides a roller coaster.

    Geeโ€ฆ I heard most of these 500 will be doing salesโ€ฆ investment-linked insurance typesโ€ฆ which is something I had experienced buying. Mixed bags of feelingsโ€ฆ insurance should be what it is, protection. Investment on the other hand should also be what it is, growth and wealthโ€ฆ mixing both together might appear enticing for many older folks who donโ€™t really know investing and simply want more interest for their savingsโ€ฆ if the sales pitch says as it is, I would be fine, since even the non-educated would have been informed. A pity, from my past experiences, sales are sales. Thereโ€™s always a glorifying package that masks ๐ŸŽญ the actual product. I can only say that as Singaporeans become more affluent (assets and CPF rich), with cars ๐Ÿš˜ being so expensive, those savings have nowhere to go to, itโ€™s no-brainer for DBS to grab as much of this low-lying fruit ๐Ÿˆ ๐Ÿ‡ as possible, ignoring what happens when an insurance claim really rises. They are the salesperson problem, isnโ€™t it? [Facepalm]

      Whatever the 500 new staff will be focusing on, will help to build DBS' coffers.
