Singapore banks ClearlyLedger converts

ClearlyLedger ships dedicated statement profiles for 4 Singapore banks. Each profile expects the layout that bank actually prints, rather than treating every PDF as a generic table.

Bank	Date format	Currency	Typical length
DBS Bank	DD MMM YYYY	S$ SGD	4–12 pages
OCBC Bank	DD/MM/YYYY	S$ SGD	4–10 pages
United Overseas Bank	DD MMM YYYY	S$ SGD	4–12 pages
Standard Chartered Singapore	DD MMM YYYY	S$ SGD	5–14 pages

Statement conventions in Singapore

Singapore statements in our profile set use DD MMM YYYY, DD/MM/YYYY date ordering and are denominated in S$ SGD. Date ordering is the single most common source of silent conversion errors — a DD MMM YYYY statement read as US ordering produces plausible-looking but wrong dates for every day below the thirteenth of the month, which is why the Singapore profiles pin the order rather than inferring it per row.

Layout quirks these profiles handle

Originally the 'Development Bank of Singapore', founded in 1968 by the Singapore government to help finance the country's post-independence industrialisation, and today Southeast Asia's largest bank by assets
PayNow and FAST transfers include sender/recipient UEN or mobile number
Multi-currency accounts show foreign currency entries with SGD equivalent
GST entries appear as separate rows after service charges
Statement covers two months with a mid-period balance summary row
Formed in 1932 through the merger of three Chinese-run Singapore banks during the Great Depression — Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation's name still reflects that origin — and one of Singapore's three homegrown local banks alongside DBS and UOB

Importing into Singapore accounting tools

Export to CSV and import into Xero, QuickBooks, Financio or another bookkeeping system — the tools Singapore bookkeepers most often run. Amounts and dates are normalised on export so the column mapping in the import wizard resolves without hand-editing.

Conversions are processed in memory, are never used to train AI models, and the workflow is built to align with Singapore's PDPA for Singapore account holders.
