Guys, time to standardize our bank POI names.
My proposal:
Actual Name == POI Name
Affin Bank == Affin Bank <place name>
Alliance Bank == Alliance Bank <place name>
AmBank == Ambank <place name>
Bank Islam == Bank Islam <place name>
Bank Muamalat == Bank Muamalat <place name>
Bank Rakyat == Bank Rakyat <place name>
Bank Pertanian Malaysia == Bank Pertanian <place name>
Bank Simpanan Nasional == BSN <place name>
CIMB Bank == CIMB <place name>
Citibank == Citibank <place name>
Deutsche Bank == Deutsche Bank <place name>
EON Bank == EON Bank <place name>
Hong Leong Bank == Hong Leong Bank <place name>
Hong Kong & Shanghai Bank == HSBC <place name>
Maybank == Maybank <place name>
OCBC Bank == OCBC <place name>
Public Bank == Public Bank <place name>
RHB Bank == RHB <place name>
Standard Chartered Bank == StanChart <place name>
United Overseas Bank == UOB <place name>
Al Rajhi Bank == Al Rajhi Bank <place name>
Basically, we use the name most often associated with the bank. I need feedback from ALL of you if possible

Actually, the standardization of the bank name is the important part.
When searching for Maybank ATMs I see our MFM 1.15 have ...
(1) Mbb <placename>
(2) Mbb@Petronas <placename>
(3) Maybank <placename>
(4) Maybank ATM@Shell <placename>
I don't have objection to the <bankname>s proposed by Ant, but I suggest we include the variation for ATM within petrol stations ...
(a) <bankname> <placename>
(b) <bankname>@<petrolstation> <placename>
4SQ, Waze, GMM, MSM, MFM & OSM ;-}

Re: Standardization of Bank POI names
Good, at least we are moving towards of standardizations.
Oh boy, looks like PRK and NPM user has switch their search method and get used to it.
I have update MFM Mapping Type Reference v2.1.xls with bank naming standards HERE.
We had missed out banks in singapore.
Please post them here and I will update into the Reference file SYNC with Antyong compilers.

May I suggest using Chartered Bank instead of StanChart?
Because in chinese word for Standard Chartered Bank is 渣打銀行, which is "Chartered Bank" only.

Is SCB a common abbreviation for Standard Chartered bank in SG? If yes, then let's use SCB
