Role Overview
We are seeking a self driven individual to join the DBS Group Research team. The role is to support multi-sector equity research coverage across regional markets.

Key Responsibilities
- Support senior analysts in producing company and sector research notes, initiation reports, and thematic pieces across assigned coverage
- Build and maintain financial models (DCF, comps, SOTP) and earnings forecasts for covered companies
- Track quarterly results, company announcements, and sector news flow; flag material developments
- Conduct company and industry due diligence, including channel checks, site visits, and management engagement
- Assist in preparing investor-facing materials: research decks, factsheets, sector dashboards, and comparative valuation tables
- Monitor regional peers and cross-market read-throughs relevant to covered sectors
- Contribute to house-view thematic research and portfolio strategy pieces
- Maintain data accuracy across internal databases, screens, and consensus trackers
- Support ad hoc requests from sales, trading, and institutional clients

- Solid understanding of financial statements and accounting principles
- Advanced Excel proficiency; comfort with large datasets
- Familiarity with Bloomberg, FactSet, Capital IQ, or equivalent research platforms
- Working knowledge of PowerPoint for producing polished, client-ready presentations
