NM Not Meaningful

Third-quarter net profit rose 6% from a year ago and 4%
from the previous quarter to $762 million. Business
volume and customer income trends were sustained as
total income reached a new high.
Net interest income rose 1% from the previous quarter to a
record $1.21 billion. Loans rose 10% from broad-based
corporate borrowing across the region. Net interest margin
fell seven basis points to 1.73% as interest rates in
Singapore remained soft and funding costs in Hong Kong
were higher.
Non-interest income grew 18% from the previous quarter
to $754 million. Net fee income rose 3% to $397 million
from higher trade and remittances and loan activities.
Income from customer flows for treasury products also
increased. There were also higher gains from net income
on financial investments. A gain of $47 million from the
transaction to combine DBS Asset Management and
Nikko Asset Management was also recognised.

Expenses of $847 million were 6% higher than the
previous quarter. The cost-income ratio was unchanged at
43%.
The non-performing loan rate improved from 1.5% in the
previous quarter to 1.3% as non-performing assets fell
4%. Total allowances rose 69% to $231 million as
higher general allowances were made. Allowance
coverage rose to 124% and to 158% if collateral was
considered.
For the first nine months, net profit rose 17% to $2.30
billion from higher net interest income and customerdriven non-interest income, as well as from lower
allowances as asset quality improved.
DBS remained well capitalised with a total capital
adequacy ratio of 15.5%, Tier 1 of 12.6% and core Tier
1 of 10.7%. Return on equity rose slightly from the
previous quarter to 10.8%. For the nine months, it
improved from 10.2% a year ago to 11.3%.

Note:
1/ Net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets

Net interest income rose 1% from the previous quarter to
$1.21 billion.

The impact of the margin decline was offset by higher
customer loan volumes.

Net interest margin fell seven basis points from the
previous quarter to 1.73%. Securities yields were lower as
interest rates remained soft, while deposit costs in Hong
Kong were higher.

Net interest income for the nine months was 10% higher
than a year ago. Higher customer loans volumes more than
offset the impact of an eight basis point decline in net
interest margin to 1.78%.

Net fee and commission income increased 3% from the
previous quarter to $397 million. Higher income from trade
and remittances and loan activities was partially offset by
lower contributions from wealth management and
investment banking.

Net fee and commission income for the nine months rose
15% from higher customer flows in a wide range of
activities, including trade and remittances, wealth
management, loan-related and investment banking.

Net trading income (including net income from financial
instruments designated at fair value) was little changed
from the previous quarter at $143 million. Income from
customer flows was higher but the improvement was
offset by lower trading gains. For the nine months, net
trading income fell 25% to $547 million. An increase in
customer flows was more than offset by lower trading
gains.

Net income on financial investments rose from $82
million in the previous quarter to $152 million. For the
nine months, net income on financial investments was
17% higher at $318 million.
A $47 million gain from the transaction to combine DBS
Asset Management with Nikko Asset Management was
also recognised in “Others” in the current quarter.

Notes:
1/ Allowances for credit and other losses and profits exclude goodwill charges
2/ Refer to sections on Customer Loans and Non-Performing Assets and Loss Allowance Coverage for more information on business segments

The business segment results are prepared based on
the Group’s internal management reporting which
reflects the organisation management structure. As the
activities of the Group are highly integrated, internal
allocation has been made in preparing the segment
information. Amounts for each business segment are
shown after the allocation of certain centralised costs,

funding income and the application of transfer pricing, where
appropriate. Transactions between segments are recorded
within the segment as if they are third party transactions and
are eliminated on consolidation.

million as both specific and general allowances fell.

financial institutions, government linked companies,
large corporates and small and medium-sized
businesses. The business focus is to broaden and
deepen the financial relationship with clients. The

by lower net interest margin. Non-interest income grew 8%
to $469 million as trade and remittance fees and income
from customer driven treasury products increased.
Expenses rose 4% to $331 million. Total allowances
doubled to $140 million mainly due to higher general
allowances.

institutional and private investors, financial institutions and
other market participants. It is primarily involved in sales,
structuring, market making and trading across a broad
range of financial products including foreign exchange,

DBS GROUP HOLDINGS LTD AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
The performance by geography is classified based on the
location in which income and assets are recorded.
Singapore

Non-interest income declined 23% from the previous
quarter to $136 million as trading gains and sales of
treasury products were lower.

Net profit rose 10% from the previous quarter to $506
million. Higher non-interest income was partially offset by
an increase in general allowances.

Expenses were stable at $153 million. Total allowances fell
20% to $43 million as both specific and general allowances
were lower.

Net interest income fell 2% to $712 million as higher loan
volumes was offset by lower net interest margin as asset
yields declined. Non-interest income rose 39% to $549
million from higher income from financial investments and
a gain from the transaction to combine DBS Asset
Management and Nikko Asset Management.

Other regions

Expenses rose 9% to $517 million as staff and non-staff
costs increased. Allowances more than doubled to $139
million from higher general allowances. Specific
allowances declined.
Hong Kong
The third quarter’s results incorporate an appreciation of
the Singapore dollar against the Hong Kong dollar of 8%
from a year ago. The average exchange rate between both
currencies was stable from the previous quarter.
Net profit fell 24% from the previous quarter to $108 million
as a decline in net interest margin and trading income was
partially offset by higher loan volumes and lower
allowances.
Net interest income decreased 5% from the previous
quarter to $189 million. Net interest margin fell 27 basis
points to 1.25% due to higher deposit costs. This was
partially offset by a 7% increase in loans in constant
currency terms, which was due mainly to trade finance.
Deposits increased 9% in constant currency terms from
higher fixed deposit volumes.

Net profit for Rest of Greater China increased 7% from the
previous quarter to $46 million, driven by a 27% increase in
net interest income to $158 million from higher net interest
margin and loan growth. Non-interest income fell from $25
million to $3 million from lower trading income. Expenses
rose 7% to $101 million from higher wage and revenuerelated costs. Allowances were higher as there had been
higher specific allowance write-backs in the previous
quarter.
Net profit for South and South-east Asia grew 42% from the
previous quarter to $88 million as non-interest income
increased 91% to $63 million. Fees from trade and
remittances and loan activities were higher. Trading income
also increased. Expenses were little changed at $60 million.
Total allowances rose to $19 million as both specific and
general allowances increased.
Net profit for Rest of the World halved from the previous
quarter to $14 million. Net interest income was stable at
$57 million. Non-interest income declined from $10 million
to $3 million as trading income fell. Expenses were
unchanged at $16 million. Total allowances increased to
$23 million as both general allowances and specific
allowances were higher.

Notes:
1/ Includes customer loans classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss on the balance sheet
2/ Loans by geography are classified according to where the borrower is incorporated.

Gross customer loans rose 10% from the previous
quarter to $188.5 billion. Excluding currency effects,
loan growth was 7%. The growth was led by broadbased corporate borrowing across industries and
regions. Slightly less than half of loan growth during the
quarter was for trade finance.

Gross loans were 25% higher than a year ago, with the
expansion spread across most regions and across
corporate and consumer borrowers. Half of the increase
from a year ago was for trade finance.
