    We have emerged as the top ESG loans arranger in London Stock Exchange Group’s [LSEG] ESG Loans league table for Southeast Asia in 2024. We have also recently been awarded Best Bank for Sustainable Finance in Singapore and Hong Kong by The Asset and Global Finance, following our achievements in Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong in 2022 and 2023. These recognitions attest to our longstanding commitment to support our clients on their sustainability and decarbonisation goals in the transition to a low-carbon world. Despite shifts in US policy, we are confident that the traction in sustainable financing will continue. Southeast Asia remains committed to sustainability, focusing on reshaping clean energy supply chains, and advancing green technologies. There is also growing interest in a just and inclusive transition, going by the rise in sustainability linked loans which integrate social key performance-linked indicators such as gender equality, education and support for small companies. An example would be our social loans for affordable housing projects in Hong Kong. More companies are also setting KPIs that address the most material sustainability issues in their business, including Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions targets covering their value chain. As the leading bank for sustainable finance in Southeast Asia, OCBC is fully committed to leveraging our multifaceted businesses to channel capital towards sustainable initiatives that promote the greening of our economies.
