Asean’s best bank for consumers 2025: UOB

The acquisition of four Citi consumer businesses has supercharged UOB’s growth, making its pan-Asean network even harder to beat, especially in retail banking. 

As 2024 began, the acquisitions were complete in Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. And the benefits are already showing.
