Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited (simplified Chinese: 华侨银行有限公司; traditional Chinese: 華僑銀行有限公司; pinyin: Huáqiáo Yínháng Yǒuxiàn Gōngsī), abbreviated as OCBC (simplified Chinese: 华侨银行; traditional Chinese: 華僑銀行; pinyin: Huáqiáo Yínháng), is a Singaporean multinational banking and financial services corporation headquartered at the OCBC Centre.

OCBC has total assets of S$581 billion at the end of 2023,[8] making it the second largest bank in Southeast Asia by assets.[9] It is also one of the world’s most highly-rated banks, with an Aa1 rating from Moody’s[10] and AA− rating from Standard & Poor's.[11]

OCBC is consistently ranked amongst the top three "safest banks in the world" by the magazine Global Finance.[12] The Asian Banker named OCBC as Singapore's strongest bank for 2018-2019, and the 5th strongest in the Asia–Pacific region.[13] The bank's global network has grown to comprise more than 400 branches and representative offices in 19 countries and regions.[8] These include 199 office networks in Indonesia under subsidiary Bank OCBC NISP, and over 60 branches and offices in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau under OCBC China, OCBC Bank (Hong Kong) and OCBC Bank (Macau) respectively.[8] OCBC was awarded World's Best Bank (Asia-Pacific) in 2019 by Global Finance Magazine.[14]

History

[edit]
Former OCBC Bank in South Bridge Road, Singapore.

On 31 October 1932, three banks – Chinese Commercial Bank (1912), Ho Hong Bank (1917), and Oversea-Chinese Bank (1919) – merged and consolidated their strengths to form Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation under the leadership of Hoklos Tan Ean Kiam (co-founder and managing director of Oversea-Chinese Bank)[15][16] and Lee Kong Chian, who was then vice-chairman of Chinese Commercial Bank. Lee played a central role in leading the amalgamation and is affectionately known today as the "founding father" of OCBC Bank.[17][18] When OCBC began operation in February 1933, it was already one of the strongest local banks in the Straits Settlements.[19]

In 1942 during World War II, all the local banks in Singapore closed briefly during the early days of the Japanese Occupation. By April 1942 most banks, including OCBC, had resumed normal operations. In Indonesia, the Japanese occupation authorities closed OCBC's branches in Sumatra. During the war, the bank moved its head office to Bombay, India and only re-registered back in Singapore after the war ended.[20] OCBC's branch in Xiamen survived the war and in the 1950s, OCBC was one of only four foreign banks to have branches in China.[21]

After the war, OCBC re-established its branches in Jambi, Jakarta, and Surabaya. However, the 1963 conflict between Indonesia and Malaysia (which then included Singapore) resulted in the closure of OCBC's branches there. That same year the revolutionary government in Burma nationalized OCBC's two branches there, which became People's Bank No. 14.[22]

The bank was criticized for not expanding fast enough to meet the needs of the post-war Chinese business community, especially in the smaller towns of Malaya. One of the critics was Tan Sri Khoo Teck Puat (then deputy general manager) who resigned in 1959 after failing to be appointed to the bank’s board of directors, and subsequently set up Malayan Banking in Kuala Lumpur in 1960 with 80 former OCBC staff.[23]

By 1970, OCBC's total assets exceeded S$1 billion, making OCBC the largest financial institution with the biggest deposit base in Singapore. By the end of 1981, OCBC’s total assets had grown to over S$7 billion.[19]

In December 1972, OCBC acquired Four Seas Communications Bank, the oldest surviving Chinese bank in Singapore. The bank had been founded in 1906 as the Sze Hai Tong Bank and its founders had targeted the Teochew community.[24] In 1976, the landmark OCBC Centre, designed by renowned American architect I. M. Pei, was completed and serves as OCBC's current headquarters.[25] On 9 May 1989, OCBC took on a new corporate identity by changing its logo and its name to OCBC Bank.[19]

The next major acquisition occurred in August 2001, when OCBC acquired Keppel Capital Holdings and all its subsidiaries, including Keppel TatLee Bank, Keppel Securities, and Keppel TatLee Finance. By February 2002, both OCBC and Keppel TatLee banks were operationally and legally integrated.[19]

On 25 June 2004, OCBC Bank established a wholly owned subsidiary e2 Power Pte Ltd to provide back-office operations and technology support and transaction processing services in Singapore. A similar operating company, e2 Power Sdn Bhd was also set up on 21 July 2004 in Malaysia.[26]

On 3 June 2005, OCBC saw the grand opening ceremony of its newly-constructed Malaysia headquarters and main branch (Menara OCBC building) in Kuala Lumpur, officiated by the then Malaysian prime minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, and in July the same year, OCBC opened an off-shore branch in Brunei.[27]

On 11 May 2017, OCBC entered into an agreement to acquire National Australia Bank’s private wealth business in Singapore and Hong Kong.[28] The acquisition was completed in November 2017.[29] The deposits and mortgages booked in Hong Kong was transferred to OCBC Bank (Hong Kong) while those booked in Singapore was transferred to OCBC Bank.

In March 2020, OCBC announced its partnership with Xero, a New Zealand-based cloud accounting software, to help small and medium-sized enterprise customers digitise their operations.[30] In July 2020, OCBC launched HealthPass, a healthcare mobile application that aims to connect patients with medical doctors in Singapore via online consultation.[31]

On 3 September 2024, OCBC announced that it would soon allow children aged 7 to 15 (which it described as "Generation Alpha") to have their own bank account, operate their bank account digitally, and to have their own debit card. It stated that this OCBC MyOwn Account would be registered solely in the name of the child, but would only be operable "within boundaries and controls set by parents".[32][33]

On 29 January 2010, OCBC completed its acquisition of ING Asia Private Bank and renamed it Bank of Singapore. Therefore, OCBC renamed the bank that housed finatiQ, Singapore Island Bank to differentiate these two separate businesses to avoid confusion.[40] As an online-only service provider of OCBC Bank, finatiQ could no longer meet the growing needs of the bank's customers and had ceased business on 30 June 2011.[41]

Controversies

[edit]

Phishing scams (2021)

[edit]

In December 2021, nearly 470 customers of OCBC lost a combined S$8.5 million after fallen prey to phishing scams involving OCBC, when scammers took advantage of old short message service (SMS) technology to impersonate the bank to send unsolicited SMSes and dupe victims into handing over their online banking log-in details.[48] OCBC later announced in January 2022 that it will make "full goodwill payouts" to all victims.[49]

Wirecard scandal (2023)

[edit]
See also: Wirecard scandal

In June 2023, OCBC was fined S$600,000 by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) for breaching anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism financing rules, in a matter related to the German payments provider Wirecard scandal between June 2015 and January 2016 relating to accounts maintained by one corporate customer.[50] OCBC had failed to inquire into the background and purpose of transactions that were not consistent with its knowledge of the customer, or were unusually large and exhibited an unusual pattern that had no apparent economic purpose. The bank also failed to probe into the customer’s ownership and control structure when its declared beneficial owner was not named in its corporate registration documents.[51]

Banking disruptions (2023 - 2024)

[edit]

On 28 August 2023, OCBC's banking services were disrupted by a technical problem at about 8.33am, which affected both consumer and banking customers. The affected services included the bank's internet and mobile banking platforms, the PayNow service, ATMs, cards, and Velocity, the bank's digital business banking platform. All banking services were restored at about 12.20pm.[52][53] According to media reports, OCBC shares gained 1.05% in afternoon trading that day.[54]

On 7 November 2023, the bank's services were affected by "intermittent technical issues" around noontime. The services affected included digital banking services, fund transfer services, PayNow services, and SMS one-time passcode services. According to media reports, some OCBC customers who contacted the bank's customer support were told that the service was fine, and were advised to uninstall and reinstall the app.[55] The services were restored at about 2.30pm.[56][57]

On 1 September 2024, at about 11.50am, OCBC acknowledged that some users were having difficulties using its internet and mobile banking services. Some users reported being unable to make payments, such as via PayNow. The bank stated that no customer data had been compromised and its customers' funds remained safe. It announced at 3.22pm that the services had returned to normal.[58]

On 28 September 2024, it was reported that some internet and mobile banking users were not able to view their account balances and transaction history, or could not log in or carry out transactions. OCBC acknowledged at 5.03pm that day that there was a disruption to its services. It subsequently announced at 7.04pm that its internet and mobile banking services were restored.[59]
