A new investment approach for a new world

As we look into the 2020s, investors should seek out what we at DBS refer to as IDEA companies, the companies that are recognised as the innovators, disruptors, enablers, or adapters of their industries. By driving massive changes in their business, so will these companies be able to ride the wave of our changing world.
