would be better if you are buying an STI ETF. DBS according to insiders and outsiders is the most inefficient bank with infighting
ReplyDeleteAH HUH! i won't be surprised if there is some truth in what you hearsay. After all it's "AH KONG's" Bank. But it's still O. K. if you buy at the right price(entry price).
DeleteOn the other hand, "Family's" Bank may have "Inbreeding".
Maybe only OCBC is a real private bank now. No?
NB:
i am bias against "Family run business" for in the long run "Inbreeding" may destroy the business.
