OCBC sustainable finance portfolio climbs to $80b on 2025 gains

The bank’s 2025 report shows it issued over 280 green and sustainability-linked loans for net-zero goals.

Oversea‑Chinese Banking Corporation Limited (OCBC) increased its sustainable finance portfolio by $9b in 2025, bringing the total to $80b, according to its 2025 Annual Report.

The bank issued more than 280 green, transition, social, and sustainability-linked loans and advised on over 210 transactions.

In Singapore, OCBC continued its net-zero transition by improving energy efficiency and managing operational carbon across its properties.

The bank supported local community programs, including the SwimTogether water safety initiative, which gave 100 persons with disabilities access to 800 classes.

OCBC also carried out nature-based projects, such as seagrass transplantation and supporting Singapore’s first documented peregrine falcon breeding study, where two chicks hatched at the OCBC Centre in 2025.

The bank strengthened responsible business practices with cybersecurity measures, including secure in-app calls and extending the OCBC Money Lock anti-scam feature in Singapore and other markets.

OCBC promoted active mobility through its OCBC Cycle events, engaging thousands of cyclists and donating registration fees to local charities.

The 2025 Annual Report shows that OCBC continues to integrate ESG practices, climate initiatives, and community programs into its Singapore operations.

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.
