It's the holding company for DBS Bank, the largest bank in Singapore, as well as banking subsidiaries in China, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand. DBS Bank offers personal and private banking in addition to enterprise services to small and midsized companies. Subsidiaries of the bank trade stocks and futures, and issue credit cards. DBS Group also owns a 20% stake in the Bank of the Philippine Islands, that country's second-largest bank.
