Standard Chartered has agreed a joint venture deal to launch a digital-only bank in Singapore with the country’s National Trades Union Congress (NTUC).
A Standard Chartered vehicle will take a 60% stake in the venture, worth USD 107.28 million, with the NTUC’s enterprise arm taking the remaining 40% stake.
The Standard Chartered vehicle involved in the transaction obtained a full Singaporean banking licence in December 2020.
