In the first half of 2025, the bank collected more awards, including eight more Best Digital Bank wins from award-giving bodies such as Global Banking & Finance Awards, World Business Outlook Awards, International Business Magazine Awards, and International Investor Magazine Awards.
CIMB Bank PH now serves nearly 10 million customers. Trust in the institution was further recognized through Most Trusted Bank awards from the Global Excellence Chronicle Magazine Awards, Gazet International Awards, and the Finance Derivative Awards.
The bank also received Most Innovative awards from the Global Business Outlook Awards, Global Business Magazine Awards, and Brands Review Magazine for new products and services launched this year.
CIMB Bank PH’s Strategic Partnership of the Year win from the Asian Banking and Finance Awards highlighted its embedded banking partnerships with Shopee, Lazada, and GCash, supporting its goal of expanding financial inclusion.
