Maybank Singapore rolls out $1,250 ex gratia support for junior staff amidst cost pressures

The one-off payout will be distributed to eligible juinor employees.

Maybank Singapore will provide a one-off $1,250 ex-gratia payment to eligible junior employees following the release of its 2025 financial results, according to a press release.

The payment is intended to support staff facing cost-of-living pressures and matches the level provided last year, which the bank described as “an above-market figure for individual support.”

Alvin Lee, Country CEO and CEO of Maybank Singapore, said the payment recognises employee contributions in the current operating environment, whilst targeting colleagues managing day-to-day expenses.

The bank is entering the next phase of its ROAR30 strategy, focusing on workforce development and the enhancement of internal capabilities.

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.
