DBS & OCBC New Highs! How’s Your SG Bank Holding Experience?
$DBS(D05.SI)$ and $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ both pushed to new intraday highs of $56 and $19.47, supported by strong wealth-management fees, solid capital-return plans, and attractive dividend yields.
Even as interest rates are expected to fall, analysts see Singapore banks as resilient, backed by:
Wealth-management fees offsetting NIM pressure 5%–6% implied yields into 2026 Buybacks and dividends supporting share prices.
Between the two, OCBC looks cheaper on valuation, while DBS continues to offer strong dividend visibility.

I am grateful that both DBS and OCBC are performing well and a deep feeling of being secure, knowing that my capital is parked in the backbone of Singapore's economy, protected by solid returns and nice juicy dividends.

Between the two, I appreciate DBS for its consistency and dividend clarity, while OCBC adds value with a slightly cheaper valuation and improving fee momentum. Even with some NIM pressure ahead, the overall package still feels resilient, especially when buybacks and dividends continue to support share prices.
I also use DLCs $DBS 5xLongSG280330(LQSW.SI)$ $OCBC 5xLongSG261217(TUAW.SI)$ selectively to enhance returns during strong trends, and this recent move has worked out well. It’s not about chasing excitement — it’s about compounding quietly, collecting yield, and letting time do the heavy lifting.

I am happy that it has been keeping up the percentage even while valuations climb
