OCBC Introduces Transaction Services with UAE Dirham (AED), Thai Baht (THB), and South Korean Won (KRW) to Expand Business Opportunities Across Asia

Jakarta, 13 July 2026 – OCBC has officially introduced bilateral transaction services in multiple local currencies without intermediary currency conversion, including the United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED), Thai Baht (THB), and South Korean Won (KRW). The addition of these currencies reflects the Bank's ongoing commitment to supporting Indonesian businesses seeking to expand their presence across Asia and the Middle East. This enhancement further strengthens OCBC's efforts to provide more relevant, efficient, and competitive banking solutions for business customers in managing their international operations.

With these new currencies now available, cross-border payments and fund transfers become simpler by allowing transactions to be conducted directly in the respective local currencies of the United Arab Emirates, Thailand, and South Korea, without requiring intermediary currency conversion. This provides customers with multiple benefits, including faster transaction processing, more predictable cash flow management, and cost savings through more competitive exchange rates.

“The launch of these transaction services reflects our commitment to strengthening our support for customers as they expand and compete in the global marketplace. Businesses can now conduct transactions to and from the United Arab Emirates, Thailand, and South Korea with greater convenience and flexibility. In addition to being available at all OCBC branches, these services can also be accessed digitally through OCBC Business, enabling our business customers to manage their transactions anytime and from anywhere,” said Gianto Kusno, Head of Transaction Banking OCBC.

The service is available across various business account types, including Business Smart Current Account, Business Signature Current Account, DHE SDA Current Account, and Multicurrency Current Account, providing flexibility for businesses of different sizes and operational needs. The addition of AED, THB, and KRW further enriches OCBC's foreign currency offerings while supporting Indonesian businesses in strengthening partnerships, exports, and trade activities with strategic partners across Asia.

OCBC believes that fast, competitive, and digitally accessible banking services are essential to accelerating business growth in today's global economy. Through these solutions, customers can expand their cross-border business activities with greater confidence while maintaining full control over their international transaction needs.
