First you have to find the 100M... and it is in USD not SGD
30% is way too high. Try 12 to 18% depending on banks. So ave 15% is more realistic

So as a base, USd 100 M, or SGd 130M at 15% gives you about SGD 200K

However in today's market, the target may not be USD 1M anymore, but closer to USD 1.5M
USd 1 M revenue is nonthing to shout about.

On another point, my wife is complaining about her relationship managers (RMs)with a major local bank. She says that they are so new and make mistakes with simple transactions. Often, the attending clerks know more than them. The problem as mentioned is that there is such a high turnover.

Unregistered I was just thinking that being in the Trust side of things does mean that I'm not supposed to be involved in the Investment side. Being a RM would enable me to deal with both Trust & Investments, and the job would be more heavily skewed towards maintaining relationships with clients. The Trust side would be more administrative in nature am I right?

Trust admin seems to be quite good leh. I have friends in Citi Trust they get sent overseas for training, also take the STEP certification (Singapore Trust Estate Practitioner?) etc. Pay also quite high and many private banks fighting to hire them due to the limited trust experienced adminstrators.

Arbitrage Hi 6 yrs in Pte Banking, I’m from bank too. Would like to find out more about Pte Banking from you. Don’t mind emailing me at [email protected]?
Thanks alot.

6 yrs in Pte Banking Guys let me give you an inside STORY on how pte banks in Spore works. Firstly im not a pte banker but a product specialist.

First of all, u might be surprised, Spore is the 2nd largest pte wealth centre in the world as @ 30.06.09 and we are contributing ~6-8% of the world’s offshore pte wealth. CHF tops @ ~16-18%.

N most Sporeans’ a/cs here are are not the “elite” type… mostly just ikan bilis for the pte banks. i have seen ten digit figures from middle eastern, latin americans n Indonesians. Infact, our govt is also trying very hard to become the CHF in Asia, safe, fun (f1, casino, universal studios etc) n even creative tax breaks. The last 10yrs have been growing like crazy… up untill last yr’s crisis. Look at jim rogers or even jet li etc.

Now, would you really make $ via pte banking a/cs? Most likely not as your PB has a big target to meet… so most pro. u would be trading more than u actually need so conflict of interests. So not making $$ then why pte banking a/cs… its becuz in Spore this industry has not mature yet. Infact in CHF, ~80% of the wealth there is still held in small boutique private banks so im reckoning these small local boutique family office kind of shop would be set up in the future where the rich would have the ultimate personalized service with $$ being managed as what the money mangers would do for their own $$.

Consistence returns yr on yr with good financial planning is the key to grow REAL wealth!!!

Cheers

wealthjourney, which currencies do you keep your wealth in? I am conflicted. Thinking of shifting some to AUD (mostly mine is in SGD now).

CS is doing a lot better than UBS though, I can say that much...
