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.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options 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. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
