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.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
