Qualifying for private banking depends largely on your investable assets. Most banks set a minimum threshold between SGD 1 million and SGD 5 million.
Applicants typically need to pass rigorous KYC checks and provide detailed documentation on source of funds, business background, and investment goals. Some institutions offer tiered entry through priority banking before full private banking access.
Once qualified, clients gain access to tailored products, offshore structuring, and a dedicated advisory team.
FAQs:

Private banking is selective—but for those who qualify, the benefits extend far beyond investment returns.
