SINGAPORE — The exposure that Singapore banks DBS, OCBC and UOB have to troubled banking giant Credit Suisse are"insignificant", the Monetary Authority of Singapore said on Thursday ."Banks in Singapore are well-capitalised and conduct regular stress tests against credit and other risks," said the financial authority.
Credit Suisse was forced to tap on a US$54 billion financial lifeline from the Swiss central bank after seeing its stocks in freefall on Wednesday. The announcement helped reverse some of the heavy share market losses, sending its stocks soaring back up by more than 30 per cent at the start of trading in Zurich.MAS said that it has been in close contact with the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority , the parent supervisory authority of Credit Suisse, on recent developments regarding the bank and will continue to keep tabs on the situation.
It noted that FINMA and the Swiss National Bank have issued a joint statement affirming that Credit Suisse continues to meet the higher capital and liquidity requirements applicable to Swiss systemically important banks, and that SNB stands ready to provide liquidity to the bank. MAS on Monday said that Singapore's banking system also had similarly “insignificant exposures” to the failed Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, whose collapses happened recently.
