Products are usually priced at a reference interest rate plus a margin that reflects the borrower’s credit profile, the collateral offered and the repayment tenor, and deposit balances are generally protected by a national deposit-insurance scheme up to a statutory limit. That deposit protection, together with capital and liquidity requirements, is one of the key differences between a licensed bank and an unlicensed money lender.

Because banking is a licensed activity, OCBC Bank is supervised for capital adequacy, liquidity, consumer conduct and anti-money-laundering compliance by the financial regulator or regulators of the markets in which it operates. Before signing any facility letter or credit agreement, customers should confirm that the entity they are dealing with is the licensed institution itself rather than an unlicensed intermediary using a similar name, and should read the full fee schedule, interest terms and early-repayment conditions.
