Weakness
1. NPA in oil and gas exposures: DBS bank has been plagued by major exposure to weak oiland gas services. The bank had a total of SGD 5.1 billion of exposure in the sector as of 2017 of which it has recognized SGD 3.0 billion as non-performing on a conservative basis. The bank took the step to accelerate the recognition of residual weak oil and gas support service exposures as non-performing to remove uncertainty regarding its asset quality.
Opportunity
1. Forecasted increase of intra-regional trade: With the coming of ASEAN Economic Community since 2015, trade will increase among South Asian economies. This will provide an opportunity for cross-border financing and for expansions increasing business opportunities for DBS.
2. Opportunities in emerging markets such as India: India is being seen as an optimistic market with compelling growth opportunities. IT is one of the fastest growing economies and poised to be the third largest economy by 2028, overtaking Japan.
