GXS Group, comprising GXS Bank in Singapore and GXBank in Malaysia, has reported a significant financial upturn for the fiscal year ending 31 December 2025. The Group’s asset base tripled, and revenue doubled, driven by strategic expansions in retail and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs).
The Group’s total loans surged by 323% to S$1.03b, reflecting a diversified strategy across various segments. Despite a challenging interest rate environment, total deposits grew by 38% to S$2.3b, with an 84% increase in Net Interest Income. The Expected Credit Loss improved from 6.8% to 4.6%, attributed to enhanced credit modelling and a balanced mix of secured and unsecured assets.
Following the completion of its regional technology infrastructure in 2024, GXS Group managed to halve its cost-to-income ratio from 695% to 313%, maintaining flat operating expenses. This operational efficiency highlights the Group’s strategic focus on scaling its financial services.
In 2025, GXS Group expanded its Business Banking services to MSMEs, offering interest-bearing accounts and flexible credit lines. The acquisition of GXS Capital, formerly Validus Capital, marked a milestone as the first successful acquisition of a local fintech by a homegrown digital bank in Singapore. This move accelerated GXS Bank’s market reach, particularly in trade finance and working capital loans.
The Group’s regional expansion included a capital injection of over S$54m into GXBank in Malaysia and a minority stake in Indonesia’s Superbank, which successfully launched its IPO in December 2025. GXS Group’s efforts underscore its commitment to financial inclusion and innovation in Southeast Asia’s digital banking landscape.
