  4. 19 July 2022 - Maybank Singapore officially launched the Young Entrepreneur Scheme (YES) Programme on 18 July 2022 at a seminar event on entrepreneurship. This programme seeks to help the entrepreneurial millennial generation bridge the gap between their dreams of launching a business and turning it into a reality, while answering the nation’s call to promote entrepreneurship.

    The Bank observes that many new and young business owners face many challenges in starting a business. Without at least two years of business track record, it is often difficult for them to secure a bank loan for business expansion and they would have to fall back on their own savings or fund raising efforts. First-time entrepreneurs may also lack appropriate business management tools or relevant experience in running a business, as well as a business network to find peer and mentor support.

    Maybank’s YES programme is a holistic solution designed to address these gaps faced by micro and small and mid-size enterprises for business owners. New clients who are operating businesses that are registered and incorporated in Singapore for less than two years, with at least one local director or co-founder under 40 years old and a minimum of 30% local shareholding by Singapore Citizens or Permanent Residents, are eligible to sign up for the YES programme.


  5. 03 November 2022 - Maybank Singapore organised a roundtable discussion in partnership with The Business Times themed “Asean’s Moment: Uncovering Opportunities in Disruptive Times”, the panel included Mr Gregory Seow, Head of Global Banking at Maybank Singapore amongst others. The discussion facilitated insights on the ASEAN region, amidst fears of a potential global recession setting in even as central banks raise interest rates to rein in inflation. However, panelists said that South-east Asia is expected to be relatively shielded from such concerns, thanks to its favourable demographics and the prospect of business recovery as Covid-related restrictions are lifted. The region is still poised for growth, with digitalisation, sustainability and domestic demand acting as drivers.


  6. 04 November 2022 - Maybank Singapore was conferred as a Digital for Life Champion on 4 November 2022. The award was in recognition of the efforts to promote digital inclusion and literacy amongst disadvantaged communities such as senior citizens, youths, hawkers and special needs individuals.
