Who we are
OCBC is the longest established Singapore bank, formed in 1932 from the merger of three local banks, the oldest of which was founded in 1912. We have grown from strength to strength to become a regional financial services group. With a deep history in Asia, we offer the most comprehensive coverage across ASEAN and Greater China, complemented with a presence in the leading economies of New York, London and Sydney.
We are the second largest financial services group in Southeast Asia by assets with one of the world’s highest credit rating (Aa1 by Moody’s and AA- by both Fitch and S&P). With more than 400 branches and offices in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand, as well as Mainland China, Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR and Taiwan, OCBC is well-equipped to support your regional aspirations with our deep local knowledge – be it growing your personal wealth or capturing business opportunities – for now, and beyond.
We offer private banking services through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of Singapore, which operates on a unique open-architecture product platform to source for the best-in-class products to meet its clients’ goals.
Our insurance subsidiary, Great Eastern Holdings, is the oldest and most established life insurance group in Singapore and Malaysia.

Charles Tse, Graduate Talent 2019
Manager, Sales Global Markets
“The two-year Graduate Talent Program provides comprehensive training and on-the-job experience to help me develop into a more mature banking professional. I joined OCBC in 2019 as a Graduate Talent. Throughout the program, I rotated in various divisions including Corporate Banking, Risk Management, Global Markets, and Operations, providing me with comprehensive understanding of how the Bank runs from front to back office. In addition, I participated as a founding member of the Green & Sustainable Banking initiative to drive Sustainable Finance across the region. The "Regional Week" training with other Graduate Talents globally further expanded my network and proficiency in working with talents from around the world.”
Fiona Kwok, Graduate Talent 2017
HR Business Partner Human Resources
“During the regional week in Singapore, a series of talks given by business leaders were arranged to deepen our understanding of OCBC Group. ‘The Open Vault’, the fintech and innovation unit in OCBC, was opened to us to showcase the latest tech development in the bank, and how banking industry is transforming in the 21st century.
Not only did we enhance our understanding of the financial industry, but we also build rapport with graduate talents from other regions. We understood the cultural difference by working on business cases together. Meeting people across the bank, we can build our professional network beyond Hong Kong.”
