Maybank Sustainability Report
2014
Community
Empowerment
Financial inclusion acts as a powerful accelerator of economic progress. It helps to
eliminate extreme poverty and builds shared prosperity. As we expand regionally,
we are committed to improving the lives of communities across Asia, particularly
in developing effective and affordable solutions to the issues of financial and social
exclusion. We are committed to deepening our understanding of social issues and
financial problems.
We do this through multiple interventions, such as microfinancing in Indonesia and innovative business-based solutions such as the Family Fund in
Singapore. We also increased our work with people with disabilities (P.W.D.s) and focused on supporting their financial independence.
