Live more, Bank less

This new brand promise reflects our belief that in the digital era, we need to deliver banking that is so simple, seamless and invisible, our customers have more time to spend on the people or things they care about.
It encapsulates several ideas – enabling customers to live hassle-free with invisible banking, to seize life’s opportunities and to live larger than themselves.
Embedding ourselves in the customer journey
To become more customer-centric, we continued to embed ourselves in the customer journey. Working together with ecosystem partners, DBS has launched digital first propositions providing on-the-go loans, investments and online marketplace to help customers access new markets. The idea was to embed banking in the everyday lives of customers, making banking invisible.

Magnetic
ink character recognition code (MICR) is a technology that enables faster
processing of cheques by recognizing unique characters printed on the cheque.
MICR consists of a 9 digit code. The
first three digits of the MICR code represent the city, the next three give the
bank code and the last three digits denote the branch of the bank. Similar to
an IFSC code, every branch of a bank has a specific MICR code. While IFSC is
used for online fund transactions, MICR is used for cheques.
