SUPPORTING THE LOCAL BUSINESS SCENE

OCBC Bank has been supporting the Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and entrepreneurs since the 1930s. We are committed to promoting the spirit of entrepreneurship, and are a main sponsor of various business awards that recognise the accomplishments and celebrate the successes of businesses ranging from emerging enterprises to large corporates. This is in line with our ongoing commitment to support enterprises across the various stages of their business life cycle.

The Edge Billion Ringgit Club (Malaysia)

OCBC Bank (Malaysia) Berhad has been the main sponsor of The Edge Billion Ringgit Club since its inception in 2010. The initiative recognises and honours top publicly-listed companies in Malaysia as measured by turnover or market capitalisation.

Corporate awards are given out coveringe each of the seven Bursa Malaysia designated sectors and the much-coveted Company of the Year Award recognises the best of corporate Malaysia.

The much-coveted Company of the Year Award recognises the best of corporate Malaysia. It takes into account, among others, profit before tax growth, returns to shareholders, return on equity, and corporate social responsibility initiatives.

The Edge Billion Ringgit Club is an independent effort of The Edge newspaper although it invites external judges to help evaluate corporate social responsibility efforts.

The SMG ESG Positive Impact Awards

In August 2022, OCBC Bank (Malaysia) Berhad became the main sponsor of the ESG Positive Impact Awards, organised by Star Media Group Berhad (SMG). SMG is the holding company of The Star, Malaysia’s top English-language daily.

The Awards recognise Malaysian companies – from smaller SMEs to larger corporates – that demonstrate exemplary environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices to bring about a positive impact on society. The awards programme encompasses 15 categories split across the three subareas of ESG.

Premised on OCBC Bank’s and SMG’s common commitment to building a more sustainable tomorrow, the inaugural awards programme is set to encourage and accelerate ESG momentum, as well as inspire more companies to follow in the footsteps of the identified role models, and ultimately view ESG considerations as a fundamental part of responsible business conduct.

The inaugural awards ceremony will be held in May 2023. Those wishing to make a submission may register their interest at https://staresgawards.com.my/.
