From what I know in my time here with Citi, mostly it's the status/prestige, the team of staff supporting you tgt with your RM, and the lounge access in my opinion. There are some specific benefits like free global transfers, lifestyle events, investment seminars etc, which cater to a more niche clientele. The new Citi Wealth Hub has received quite positive feedback since its opening in Dec, so I guess that is an extra perk if you'd like to bring your family to chill while shopping along Orchard.

If you're a new to bank client and you deposit $250k within the first 3 months, then you can qualify for their welcome promo too:
- $300 base reward, and
- $300 additional online reward, and
- $300 additional reward for new/existing credit cardholders

Of course they will reward you much more for investing/insuring, but even without doing so, the above is what you get for just depositing fresh funds.

Their service chargers is also the higher if you happen to but product thru them. In fact is the highest.

hi guys, just been told that DBST requires 350k AUM + Accredited Investor status starting this year in order to qualify. Their staff also mention that without AI status, they will need to seek special waiver. Wondering has anyone successfully seek waiver for this before?

I am not keen to invest in their riskier products, I just want to use their iWealth app for my stock trading.

Hi there,

OCBC Bank reserves the right to impose a Premier Banking Service fee of fifty Singapore Dollars (S$50) if the S$200k Asset Under Management requirement is not met.

Premier customers may also be regrade to personal banking, if the AUM is not maintained.

You may wish to get in touch with your RM for more details.

Any perks for this bank that are good? I saw their save up promotion.

What is the sum to join Premier wealth?
Their savings promo used to be good before the interest collapsed last year but now I don't use them anymore. Still have FD with them that pays 2+% for 3 years.
I think it's 200k

Is there any way to get fall-below fee for SC waived? Planning to shift out funds and continue trading at low commission until the $50 fee kicks in

Hello OCBC Bank,

May I check with you, for premier banking, does SRS unit trust investments transferred to OCBC from DBS and cash in SRS count towards the AUM?

Hi there,

SRS cash balances and SRS investments with OCBC are included.

Only the deposit amount and investment products purchased by the main account holder, through us are included under our AUM. Other exclusions include securities purchased even if they are bought under OCBC Securities.

For clarification, please leave your details via PM for us to contact you directly.
