Important notes

Under the provisions of the Deposit Insurance Act 2005 (the "Act"), Singapore dollar denominated deposits with HSBC held by individual depositors or charities will be insured by the Singapore Deposit Insurance Corporation Limited for up to the limit specified in the Act. For more information, click here.

On 16 October 2008, it was announced that the Singapore Government will offer protection under a guarantee of up to S$150 billion for all Singapore dollar and foreign currency deposits of individuals and non-bank customers in banks, finance companies and merchant banks licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore. This guarantee will remain in place until 31 December 2010. Media reports have stated that the Singapore Government guarantee does not cover structured deposits and pledged deposits. Accordingly, dual currency investments, structured deposits and deposits which are pledged, charged or secured as collateral are not covered by this guarantee.

With effect from 1 April 2010, your liability prior to debit card loss reporting will be capped at S$100 provided that you have not acted fraudulently, negligently or failed to report the card loss immediately. Click here for more details.
