Serving both personal and priority banking clients, the branch features advanced digital and self-service capabilities such as an automated Cash Bag Deposit machine for business banking clients. Despite the pervasive digital technologies, the branch still preserves physical touchpoints like an accessible service counter to complement its online offering.

“Our clients have increasingly shown a preference for digital banking, and this doesn’t change when they step into a branch,” Andrew Chia, Head of Retail Banking, Standard Chartered Bank Singapore said in a statement.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
