DBS CEO earned pay package of S$8.08 mln in 2011
SINGAPORE, March 29 (Reuters) - DBS Group's chief executive, Piyush Gupta, earned S$8.08 million ($6.4 million) in 2011 when the Singaporean lender's net profit rose to a record.
The pay package did not include S$773,240 of shares Gupta will receive as part of shares option or a so-called "retention award", Singapore's biggest bank said on Thursday.
In 2010, Gupta earned S$7.35 million without the retention award, which, when included, took his total compensation to S$8.04 million, DBS said.
Gupta has been praised by investors for turning around the bank as he focused on boosting revenue from existing businesses such as wealth management and avoiding pricey acquisition.
