DBS Signals Continuity With CEO Pick -- Market Talk

Dow Jones08-08

0212 GMT - DBS Group's pick of Tan Su Shan as its next CEO signals continuity at the Singapore bank, Maybank Research analyst Thilan Wickramasinghe says in a report. The appointment suggests a stable transition as Tan is already a major contributor to DBS's culture and business mix, Wickramasinghe says. Among DBS' key priorities will be driving growth in North Asia amid a structural slowdown, pursuing new growth in India and staying the course on capital returns, the analyst reckons. Maybank keeps a buy rating on the stock, but cuts its target price to S$38.76 from S$38.87. Shares are last 0.45% lower at S$33.50.(amanda.lee@wsj.com)
