Session length: 50 min Description: Climate change is one of the greatest threats today to the global well being, ranging from economic threats stemming from changing weather patterns, exposure to climate risk for global companies, and pollution of the air, water and soil from which we grow our food. In most countries, the political will exists to tackle this threat, yet are experts predicting that it will cost governments close to $2 trillion to implement the commitments of the Paris Agreement. The biggest challenge is financing these goals. Governments are able to finance approximately 10-15% of these commitments, therefore to be successful, private sector financing is a critical part of the solution. But how can they create the financial instruments, public and private, to attract the necessary capital?

  • SBA 2016 Mr Piyush Gupta
    EMBARGOED TILL THURSDAY, 31 MARCH 2016, 8.00PM SINGAPORE BUSINESS AWARDS 2016 OUTSTANDING CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF THE YEAR 2015 MR PIYUSH GUPTA CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER DBS GROUP HOLDINGS LTD Background Mr Piyush Gupta became CEO of DBS Group Holdings in November 2009, as banks were emerging from the Global Financial Crisis. The Global Financial Crisis had resulted in a slew of regulatory changes for banks, which were compelled to cull their risk-taking activities. It also led to the retreat of some global banks in Asia: this created an opportunity for DBS to gain market share and lead in the Asian banking space. Shortly after Piyush joined, together with the DBS management committee, he unveiled a strategic roadmap to transform DBS into the Asian Bank of Choice for the new Asia. At the heart of this was a belief that it was possible to have an Asian niche, the sweet spot between being a local and global bank. DBS’ strategic roadmap focused on nine priorities within three broad areas. The first set of priorities was geographic, which highlighted what the bank needed to achieve in 1 Singapore, Hong Kong and the other key Asian markets. The second set of priorities were centred on businesses which DBS wanted to build out regionally, namely, wealth, SME, transaction banking and the customer component of treasury and markets. The third was the ‘enablers’, essentially the plumbing including technology and operations, and people and culture, that would enable the bank to execute against the strategy. DBS would also differentiate itself through Asian-style banking, characterised by a commitment to Asian relationships, Asian service, Asian innovation, Asian connectivity and Asian insights.

  • DBS Bank: a Force for Good in Asia
    1 DBS Bank: A Force for Good in Asia This Singapore bank -- a regional powerhouse -- is unlocking value for Asia. Its CEO, Piyush Gupta, explains how. by Vibhas Ratanjee Vibhas Ratanjee, a Senior Practice Expert, is based in Gallup's Singapore office. A bank was set up in Singapore in 1968 to help the young nation in its industrialization efforts. True to its founding premise, DBS, then known as the Development Bank of Singapore, played a significant role in growing the country as a trade and commercial center, including financing the nation's first shopping mall and managing Singapore Airlines' initial public offering. The bank successfully weathered the Asian stock market crash of 1997-98 and acquired a historic Singaporean financial institution, the Post Office Savings Bank (POSB), at that time. The bank also withstood the worldwide recession that began in 2007, emerging as a regional player even as many global financial titans disappeared. DBS extends loyalty to customers and employees in good times and bad. Today, DBS has become a financial force across Asia by forging an identity as a bank that is "Living, Breathing Asia." It has become a highly respected and much awarded bank -- the largest in Singapore and Southeast Asia -- and has an enviable growth record. What DBS does differently Over the years, Singapore has grown in strength and stature and is today perceived by many as the "Switzerland of the East." DBS, with its regional ambitions, was well-placed to ride the wave of growth in Asia -- though it was not always easy, especially during the Asian economic crisis of 1997 and the global economic crisis that began in 2007.
