‍SINGAPORE, 21 July 2026 - GXS Group has become the first bank to be recognised as ASEAN’s Best Digital Bank for Consumers at the Euromoney Awards for Excellence 2026.

GXS Group was recognised for its achievement of building and launching new digital banks for two markets in just two years. In giving the Group the accolade, Euromoney noted the impact it has made in the areas of financial inclusion and customer experience with GXS Bank in Singapore and GXBank in Malaysia.

In addition to its digital banks in Singapore and Malaysia, GXS Group also has a strategic minority stake in Superbank, a digital bank in Indonesia.

For its innovations in seamlessly integrating banking and financing within the digital touchpoints of its partnership ecosystem, which includes Grab and Singtel, GXS Bank was also awarded Singapore’s Best Digital Bank by Euromoney. More than five million consumers and micro-, small- and medium-sized businesses (MSMEs) in Singapore today use Grab and Singtel for their daily personal and business needs.

With the launch of GXS Bank and GXBank, Grab customers with an account in either digital banks became among the first in Singapore and Malaysia to make banking transactions while on a third-party app. From checking their bank statements to making payments for their rides and food delivery through their GXS Bank and GXBank accounts, these customers enjoy a seamless experience within their Grab app.

GXS Group also created proprietary AI-driven credit assessment models that take into account ecosystem data signals. By layering these models over traditional credit assessment models used by incumbent banks, the Group is able to extend credit to a wider set of customers. This includes platform workers and entrepreneurs who may not be able to qualify for a traditional bank loan as they do not meet their credit requirements, such as a fixed monthly salary. More importantly, ecosystem data enables its digital banks to deliver personalised and relevant support at moments that might matter most to the customer. For example, GXS Bank proactively offers pre-qualified loans to food and beverage businesses within its ecosystem during seasonal periods, when these businesses may need to increase their produce orders or manpower.

As a result of the Group’s embedded financing strategy, more than 80 per cent of its retail and business banking customers come from the Grab and Singtel ecosystem.

GXS Group’s recognitions at the Euromoney Awards for Excellence in 2026 brings its recent wins to eight awards in just the past month, underscoring the Bank Group’s leadership in digital banking.

At the Asian Banking & Finance Retail Banking Awards held in July 2026, GXS Bank was awarded Digital Business Banking Initiative of the Year and Ecosystem Initiative of the Year for its business banking services. Its subsidiary GXBank was recognised as Virtual Bank of the Year. GXBank received an additional three awards in the areas of AI & Machine Learning, Data Governance, and Internal Governance.

Ms Pei-Si Lai, Group CEO, GXS Bank said, “We are honored by the recognitions from Euromoney and Asian Banking & Finance. These awards are an encouragement to our team and the relentless focus we have to meet our day-one commitment towards our customers. From the start, our mission has been to show that banking can be simple, secure, and deeply rewarding for everyday consumers and small businesses.

We will continue to enhance our retail and business banking suite with delightful, customer-oriented solutions that address their banking pain points. We thank our customers for their confidence in us, and to my colleagues who come in every day ready to own the mission and build with bravery and curiosity.”

SINGAPORE, 20 May 2026 – GXS Bank and Lion Global Investors (LGI) have come together to launch the LionGlobal Dynamic Core Income Fund SGD, a new multi-asset fund designed to help retail investors capture opportunities across volatile market cycles.

At launch, the fund is exclusively distributed by GXS Bank as GXS Invest Diversified. Retail investors can invest into the fund through GXS Invest, the digital bank’s investment platform that is embedded within the GXS Bank app.

The LionGlobal Dynamic Core Income Fund SGD offers investors a simple and globally diversified portfolio, investing across asset classes including equities, bonds, commodities and cash through a combination of unit trusts and exchange traded funds (ETFs). The fund is dynamically-managed by LGI, one of Southeast Asia’s leading asset managers. This dynamic approach allows the investment team to adjust the portfolio in response to changing market conditions, including economic developments and geopolitical uncertainties. For example, the fund may increase exposure to certain asset classes, regions or sectors when new opportunities arise.

To guide these decisions, LGI uses an in-house investment framework that combines data-driven insights with the experience of its portfolio managers. This balanced approach helps the team respond to market changes in a timely and considered way, while keeping the portfolio aligned with long-term growth objectives.

Ms Jenn Ong, Group Head of Retail at GXS Bank, said, “Investing can be daunting, especially in volatile markets where it can be difficult to identify opportunities without taking the time to research and understand what you are investing in.

The LionGlobal Dynamic Core Income Fund SGD is the result of our shared goal with Lion Global Investors to take the stress out of investing for the everyday investor, so that they do not need to fret over making tactical investment choices during volatile market conditions. With GXS Invest, they simply need to choose the investment option that best meets their risk tolerance and investment objectives. The teams of experts behind the funds we have curated will do the rest.

Mr Darius Foo, Head of Distribution Business at Lion Global Investors said, “Today’s investors are looking for clarity, diversification and resilience in their portfolios. The LionGlobal Dynamic Core Income Fund is designed to address these needs through its simple yet diversified solution that combines active and passive strategies, supporting investors in navigating market uncertainty while staying focused on long-term growth. We are pleased to partner with GXS Bank to make LionGlobal Dynamic Core Income Fund accessible to a broader group of investors.”

GXS Bank expands its suite of funds in GXS Invest

GXS Bank’s collaboration with LGI comes as the digital bank expands its suite of investment options in GXS Invest, to meet the varying risk appetites and investment objectives of retail investors in Singapore. GXS Invest launched in 2025 with the Fullerton SGD Cash Fund to provide consumers with a low-risk entry into money market investments. GXS Bank has expanded the types of funds that are available on GXS Invest. Retail investors can now invest in the following funds through GXS Invest:
