What a Singapore bank will ask its vendor
Banks apply MAS expectations on outsourcing and technology risk to their suppliers. Expect questions on where data is processed, who can access production, how code is reviewed and tested, and how the bank can audit the work.
Most vendor projects sit around the core: onboarding journeys, lending and trade workflows, reporting, and integrations through the bank's API layer with platforms such as Temenos or Finacle.
Banking software firms in the listings
We read 28 firms in the GoodFirms Singapore software development listing filtered on banking, on 5 October 2026. The most common hourly band was $25 to $49 an hour (11 firms), and 50 to 249 people was the most frequent team size.
Few firms in a general directory have delivered inside a bank. Ask for one reference at a regulated institution and for the documents the firm produced for it.
Shortening the path to production
Projects that consume the bank's existing APIs clear security review faster than those that touch the core directly. Agree environments, test data and approvers before the first sprint.
Ask the vendor to show its build pipeline: code scanning, dependency checks and signed releases are standard requests in bank tenders.
Before you commit: a checklist
- 1.
Regulated references
Ask: which bank or MAS-regulated firm have you delivered for?
You want to hear: a named client or a reference call
- 2.
Due diligence
Ask: what documents can you provide for our vendor review?
You want to hear: policies, certificates and a recent test summary
- 3.
Access
Ask: who on your team can reach production systems?
You want to hear: named roles with logged, approved access
- 4.
Pipeline
Ask: show us the pipeline you would use for our code
You want to hear: scanning, dependency checks and signed builds
Common questions
Can a small software firm work with a Singapore bank?
Yes, often for a defined scope or as a subcontractor, if it passes the bank's due diligence and security review.
What are the MAS TRM Guidelines?
Guidelines from the Monetary Authority of Singapore on how financial institutions manage technology risk, including software development and outsourcing.
Does banking software have to stay in Singapore?
It depends on the bank's policies and the data involved. Agree data locations in the contract.
How much does banking software development cost?
More than comparable commercial work, because of security testing, documentation and review cycles. Ask for those hours separately.
What finance work has Digital Unicorn published?
Its finance references include Days Legacy, a digital wealth-management platform, and the UX/UI of the Cyrus client portal. It works remotely from Paris.
