A strategic partnership for regional growth

As reported by The Edge Malaysia, citing a joint statement by UOB Malaysia and ACCCIM, the collaboration aims to strengthen support for ACCCIM members in financing, cross-border operations and market expansion across the region.

The two parties signed the memorandum of understanding on 10 Oct to deepen their strategic collaboration, focusing on helping ACCCIM members pursue regional growth and sustainability ambitions. ACCCIM President Datuk Ng Yih Pyng said businesses are now facing growing challenges in financing, cross-border operations and market expansion amid an increasingly dynamic global economic environment.

He said the collaboration provides a more comprehensive platform for financial and business support, helping ACCCIM members strengthen their cross-border capabilities and explore new growth opportunities in regional markets.

Implications for business competitiveness

UOB Malaysia Chief Executive Officer Datuk Ng Wei Wei said the partnership builds on the bank's longstanding collaboration with ACCCIM and reflects a shared commitment to helping businesses adapt to change, strengthen competitiveness and seize opportunities across ASEAN.

She said that as UOB Malaysia celebrates its 75th year of operations in the country, the bank continues to work with businesses to build resilience and pursue sustainable growth in an increasingly dynamic business environment. Beyond business growth, she said, the bank also supports entrepreneurs in preserving the wealth they have built and creating lasting legacies for future generations.
