5.5k is way below the range for any masters with considerable, relevant prior work experience. no self-respecting MBAs would also take that pay. DBS is not naive—it's the first time they're launching a graduate program and I trust that such a well-heeled bank would dedicate the resources to conduct prior salary benchmarking/market research.

if you don't have credible sources to back your claim about the pay ceiling of 5.5k for EMAP, then please keep your comments to yourself. don't mislead others here. thanks
