OCBC has been kind enough to provide us with the Repayment Assistance Programme (Pemulih) which has been helpful in providing the much needed financial assistance for our company and I believe to many other SMEs during such trying periods. We're happy to see that these assistance programmes are able to help many SMEs including ours in getting through the pandemic and economic difficulties.

An OCBC Bank SME customer
from the beauty and personal care services industry.

Thank you for providing us the payment relief assistance. Our business was badly impacted by Covid-19 as we were unable to operate during the MCO period. And sales have reduced tremendously. This Pemulih 6-months moratorium from OCBC Bank has enabled us to have more cash flow to sustain our business.
