so suitable solutions must be developed for them as the country adapts to their burgeoning presence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe are delighted to share that our own Premier Banking customer base has achieved double-digit growth year-on-year, and we are looking to build on this with Premier Life Goals,\u201d she added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OCBC Bank (Malaysia) Berhad unveiled a specialised platform for affluent individuals to plan for their own and loved ones\u2019 future based on their life goals.
