The difference between them was that a DFB will be allowed to take deposits from and provide banking services to retail and nonretail customer segments. A DWB however, will be allowed to take deposits from and provide banking services to Small and Medium Businesses (SMBS) and other non-retail customer segments.
Ant Group, which won a DWB, formed ANEXT Bank, a digital wholesale bank incorporated in Singapore. As a DWB, the Singapore-based digital bank will focus on providing digital financial services to local and regional micro, small, and medium businesses, especially those engaging in what it calls "cross-border operations for growth and global expansion".
Toh Su Mei, the Chief Executive Officer of ANEXT Bank said: We believe it's time to offer the next generation of financial services that are accessible and effortless for growing businesses. Amid rapid acceleration in the digital economy, business models are changing and pivoting to become digital-first, if not adopting a hybrid model. Financial services have to evolve and be where SMBS are doing their businesses digitally.
To better understand what digital banking means for local SMBS and the type of services and support they can expect from ANEXT Bank, we spoke to Toh to find out more.
