In addition, specific terms and conditions (each referred to as “Specific Terms”, and collectively referred to as the “Specific Terms”) will apply to the provision of specific services and products by the Bank to you. When the Bank introduces or agrees to provide you with new services or products, the Bank will inform you of the relevant Specific Terms that apply to the provision of such new services or products, and you agree that the relevant Specific Terms will apply to the provision of the relevant new service or product by the Bank. The Specific Terms are part of these Terms. If there is any inconsistency between the General Terms and the Specific Terms, the Specific Terms will prevail to the extent of such inconsistency.

A. General Terms and Conditions

  1. must meet such requirements that the Bank may specify from time to time, generally or in relation to any specific service or product;
  2. agree that the Bank may retrieve information relating to you or the individuals connected to you (including any Authorised Person or any director, officer, member, partner, shareholder or other beneficial owner) from any source maintained by any government authority, including the Myinfo or Myinfo business platform maintained by the Singapore government and the Bizfile+ portal maintained by the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority; and
  3. agree to provide the Bank with any information or document that the Bank asks for from you in such form and manner required by the Bank from time to time.

2.1 Instructions to the Bank must be given in writing (through any means specified and accepted by the Bank, including electronic means), or any other means permitted by theBank.

2.2 You may authorise a person (an “Authorised Person”) to give instructions to the Bank and operate your account on your behalf. You may apply for a person to be an Authorised Person by providing us with the details of such person in the manner specified by us. Your appointment of an Authorised Person is subject to our approval and such conditions (including providing any indemnity in favour of the Bank and any evidence that such appointment has been duly authorised) specified by us. If we approve your appointment of an Authorised Person, you will ensure that such Authorised Person is aware of and complies with these Terms. These Terms, with the necessary modifications, apply to each Authorised Person. The Bank is under no obligation to enquire as to: (a) the validity of any authority granted to any Authorised Person, (b) the purpose for which any authority granted to any Authorised Person is exercised, or (c) whether any Authorised Person is exercising the authority granted to the Authorised Person in good faith. You may remove or replace an Authorised Person by providing written notice in the manner specified by us. Such removal or replacement will take effect after we inform you that we have accepted and approved such removal or replacement. Until we have accepted and approved such removal or replacement, we are entitled to and may continue to act on any instruction from such Authorised Person that you wish to remove or replace.

2.3 The Bank will not act on any instruction other than an instruction from you or given on your behalf (including by any Authorised Person). The Bank is entitled to act and rely on any instruction that it reasonably believes to come from you or to have been given on your behalf. If we request for information, or evidence of the identity or authority of the Authorised Person or authentication before acting on any instruction, you shall promptly provide such information, evidence or authentication. Notwithstanding this, we may act and rely on any instruction without requesting for evidence of your identity, the identity of any person giving the instruction on your behalf or any authentication.

2.4 Where any instruction is given through any means that require use of a passcode or PIN to access an application or other system before giving such instruction or to provide an authentication code, you agree that the use of such passcode, PIN or authentication code is evidence that the instruction comes from you and is authorised by you. You must safeguard the confidentiality of your passcodes, PINs and authentication codes. You must not disclose any passcode, PIN or authentication code to any person or keep a record of your passcode, PIN or authentication code in any matter that enables another person to misuse your passcode, PIN or authentication code. If you know or suspect that your passcode, PIN or authentication code has been compromised, you must immediately change your password, PIN or authentication code and notify the Bank.

2.5 The Bank may request you to provide additional confirmation before acting on any instruction. Notwithstanding this, we may act and rely on any instruction without requesting for such additional confirmation.

2.6 The Bank is not responsible or liable for any Loss that you may incur as a result of us acting on any instruction that was not authorised by you or did not come from you, unless such Loss is caused by our gross negligence, wilful misconduct or fraud.

2.7 You are responsible for ensuring that your instructions are given on time, and are accurate, clear and complete. The Bank may request confirmation, clarification or further information from you before acting on any instruction. We will not be responsible or liable for any Loss you may incur as a result of your instructions being late, inaccurate, unclear, inadequate or incomplete, or any time taken for us to confirm or clarify your instructions, unless such Loss is caused by our gross negligence, wilful misconduct or fraud.

2.8 The Bank shall have the right, but is not obliged, to not act on any instruction, or to carry out
checks before acting on any instruction, if:

  1. we reasonably believe the instruction to be not authorised or to have not come from you;
  2. the instruction is unclear or incomplete, or we receive conflicting instructions;
  3. you do not provide any information, document, authentication or confirmation requested by us;
  4. we believe that you lack the mental capacity to give us instructions or operate your account;
  5. there are insufficient funds in your account, or if any instruction may result in your account being overdrawn or having a negative balance;
  6. doing so may result in a breach of any Applicable Law (including any Applicable Law relating to anti-money laundering, countering the financing of terrorism or sanctions), or if we are prohibited by any Applicable Law, any court order or any direction from any regulator from doing so;
  7. any event or circumstance that is not reasonably within our control prevents us from doing so; or
  8. there is any other reasonable ground for us to do so, including any ground on which we have a right to freeze or suspend your account under Clause A10 (Rights of the Bank) or if any Event of Default has occurred.

The Bank will not be responsible or liable for any Loss that you may incur as a result, including from any delay in carrying out your instructions, unless such Loss is caused by our gross negligence, wilful misconduct or fraud.

2.9 Instructions once given cannot be cancelled or reversed and are binding on you, unless the Bank agrees otherwise.

3.1 The Bank will periodically make available to you statements of account, confirmation advice, transaction records or other documents (“Statements”) setting out particulars of your accounts and transactions.

  2. must meet such other requirements that the Bank may specify from time to time.

5.3 We may, on your application, accept standing instructions to transfer funds from your current account to a recipient on a recurring basis.

The standing instructions will remain effective unless we receive your instructions to cancel such recurring transfers. We may cease to process any such standing instructions for recurring transfers if there are insufficient funds in your current account or for any other reason, without prior notice to you and without giving you any reason. The Bank shall have the right to impose an administrative charge where you have given standing instructions for recurring transfers but there are insufficient funds in your current account. The Bank is not responsible for ensuring that you have sufficient funds in your current account for recurring transfers, and shall not be liable for any Loss that you may suffer as a result of the recipient not receiving the funds because there are insufficient funds in your current account.

5.4 Funds transfers may be subject to transaction limits set under Applicable Law, by the rules or guidelines governing FAST, PayNow or the payment system, or by the Bank. Any transaction limits set by the Bank will be notified to you.

5.5 A funds transfer may not be able to be processed due to circumstances relating to the recipient (e.g. if the recipient’s account is subject to a maximum balance or limit and the funds transfer would cause the balance in the recipient’s account to exceed the maximum balance or limit).

5.6 You are responsible for ensuring and verifying that the details of the recipient that you are sending funds to, and details of the amount to be transferred, are correct. The Bank has no obligation to check that the recipient is the intended recipient of your funds. If you accidentally transfer funds to the wrong recipient or you have transferred the wrong amount of funds, and you have informed the Bank promptly of such error, the Bank will endeavour to help you recover the funds. However, there is no guarantee that the Bank will be able to do so, and the Bank is not responsible or liable for any Loss that you may suffer as a result of sending funds to the wrong recipient or sending the wrong amount of funds.

5.7 If you receive a funds transfer from an unexpected source, you must inform the Bank immediately. You shall co-operate with the Bank in our investigations of the source of the funds, and the Bank shall have the right to reverse any funds transfer where the sender made a mistake in sending funds to you.

5.9 The Bank shall have the right to not process any of your instructions for a funds transfer in accordance with Clause A2.8 (Instructions) or Clause A10 (Rights of the Bank).

5.10 The Bank shall have the right to not allow you to make any deposits, or receive any transfers, into your current account at any time, without prior notice to you and without giving you any reason. Notwithstanding this, interest will continue to accrue on the balance in your current account and be paid by the Bank into your current account or to you through any other means, unless the Bank is not allowed to do so because of Applicable Laws, and the Bank may also make other credits (e.g. cashback or rewards) into your current account.

5.11 The Bank shall not be responsible or liable for any Loss that you may incur arising from any funds transfer or any funds transfer that was not processed, completed or received by you, unless such Loss is caused by our gross negligence, wilful misconduct or fraud. In addition, the Bank is not responsible or liable for any actions of the operator of FAST, PayNow or any other payment system through which funds transfers are made, or any non-availability of FAST, PayNow or such other payment system.

We are entitled to debit your current account for the transaction amount, even if you do not receive the goods or services from the individual, merchant or third party provider, or the goods or services are not of satisfactory quality. If you do not receive the goods or services or the goods or services are not of satisfactory quality, you must approach the individual, merchant or other third party provider directly and seek recourse from them.

PayNow is operated by a third party

6.3 PayNow is operated by a third party, and the availability and provision of the PayNow service is dependent on the operator of PayNow. The PayNow service is provided on an “as-is” basis and may not be available at all times. The Bank is not responsible for the acts of the operator of PayNow, or any third party involved in the provision of the PayNow service, or for any non- availability of the PayNow service, and will not be liable for any Loss that you may suffer as a result of any such acts or non-availability.

6.4 Your use of PayNow for sending of funds is subject to the rules and guidelines governing PayNow. If there is any inconsistency between these Terms and the rules and guidelines governing PayNow, the rules and guidelines governing PayNow shall prevail to the extent of such inconsistency.
