DBS Group (ISIN SG1L01001701) was trading at EUR 54.14 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026 at 11:48 a.m. CEST, up 0.80 percent versus the prior close of EUR 53.71. According to DBS Vickers, SGX reduced the standard board lot for DBS Group from 100 shares to 10 shares on October 5, 2026.

Smaller lots lower the entry hurdle

The change cuts the minimum trade size for DBS Group shares priced above SGD 10 and up to SGD 100. DBS Group's SGX price was SGD 77.83 on October 5, 2026 at 5:15 p.m. SGT, placing the old 100-share lot at SGD 7,783 and the new 10-share lot at SGD 778.30.

The lower lot size changes the cash required for a standard order, not the ownership of existing shares. DBS Vickers says the revised lots will remain in place even if a qualifying share later falls below the price threshold, while SGX will review eligibility every calendar quarter.

Second-quarter earnings offset rate pressure

DBS entered the lot-size change with a strong latest reported quarter. In the second quarter of 2026, total income rose 6.00 percent year over year to SGD 6.09 billion and net profit increased 9.00 percent to SGD 3.08 billion, according to Yahoo Finance on September 14, 2026.

The earnings mix also shows the pressure point. Net interest income fell 2.00 percent as rates declined, but wealth management fees, treasury customer sales and markets trading posted double-digit growth in the second quarter of 2026, according to the same Yahoo Finance report.

Stock stays 1.54 percent below its high

At SGD 77.83, the SGX price stood 1.54 percent below its 52-week high of SGD 79.05 and 50.25 percent above its 52-week low of SGD 51.80 on October 5, 2026. Market capitalization was SGD 220.8 billion on the same date.

Investing.com lists November 5, 2026 as DBS Group's next earnings date. That report will show whether fee growth continues to offset the 2.00 percent second-quarter decline in net interest income.

Price holds above the prior close

DBS Group was trading at EUR 54.14 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026 at 11:48 a.m. CEST, plus 0.80 percent versus the Lang & Schwarz prior close of EUR 53.71 on October 2, 2026. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of DBS Group stock.
