Standard Chartered Singapore

Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) Limited

Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) Limited is the group's Singapore banking subsidiary, registered as 201224747C and listed by MAS as a Qualifying Full Bank. Standard Chartered's Singapore business dates to 1859; its retail and SME business transferred to the local subsidiary in 2013, followed by commercial, corporate, institutional and private banking in 2019. This entry concerns that subsidiary, not the UK parent or another booking centre. Its offering spans everyday banking, Priority Banking, Priority Private and Private Banking. Priority Banking has a SGD 200,000 deposit-and-investment qualification route, with a separate housing-loan alternative. Priority Private has its own SGD 1.5 million balance requirement and annual review. Neither is the same service as Private Banking. The selected Private Banking fees below are from the July 2026 tariff; GST and third-party costs can be additional. Eligible Singapore-dollar deposits are insured up to SGD 100,000 per depositor with the bank; foreign-currency deposits, structured deposits and investment products are excluded.
