Hong Leong Finance opens fourth SME Centre

SME Centre@Yishun completes foundation network for SME customer services.

Hong Leong Finance, “Singapore Finance Company of the Year” award winner at the Asian Banking and Finance Retail Banking Awards 2011, opens its fourth SME Centre @ Branches. Situated along Yishun Ave 5, the centre completes the foundational network of SME Centres in the north, central, east and west of Singapore.

The network of SME Centres – located in Yishun, Bedok, Jurong and Farrer Park – ensures that small and medium enterprises across the island will travel no more than 30 minutes to access a centre easily. There, companies will have a conducive environment to consult on a comprehensive range of financial services and solutions such as trade financing, receivable financing, equipment financing, property financing and government-assisted financing schemes.

“As the saying goes ‘time is money’ and by strategically positioning ourselves closer to our customers, we help them save time and cost when it comes to addressing their financial needs,” noted HLF President, Ian Macdonald. “We aim to continue building on this customer-centric physical network.”

The new initiative, SME Centre @ Branches was first launched last September to provide convenient and efficient services for SMEs and it was part of the company’s 50th anniversary celebrations this year.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
