Baiduri Bank has been awarded Bank of the Year: Brunei by The Banker, UK, one of the most prestigious accolades in global banking, highlighting the Bank’s progress in delivering solutions that drive growth and create long-term value for its stakeholders.

The Bank of the Year Awards celebrate the world’s leading financial institutions for exceptional performance across multiple sectors. Winners are selected based on their ability to demonstrate strong financial performance, sound strategy, and meaningful impact in their markets.

Speaking on the achievement, Ti Eng Hui, CEO of Baiduri Bank, said, “This award reflects the strength of our strategy and the commitment of our people. From expanding our regional presence to advancing financial literacy and driving sustainable growth, 2025 has been a year of purposeful progress. As we look ahead, our focus remains on creating long-term value for our customers, communities, and stakeholders through innovation and responsible growth.”

In 2025, Baiduri Bank advanced its regional and domestic ambitions through strategic initiatives that reinforced its position as a progressive financial institution. The opening of the Bank’s Singapore Representative Office expanded cross-border capabilities, while the launch of the Financial Wellness Centre promoted nationwide financial literacy.

Over the past year, the Bank has strengthened its sustainability agenda through the Baiduri Greenprint, a long-term framework embedding responsible practices across people, processes, and planet. The Bank also became a full member of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), reinforcing its pledge to sustainable practices aligned with international principles.

In addition to the recent recognition from The Banker, Baiduri Bank received multiple international accolades in 2025 from leading financial publications such as The Asian Banker and Euromoney, reflecting the Bank’s continued focus on strong governance, customer-centric innovation, and its role in advancing Brunei’s financial sector. Collectively, the awards signify a clear commitment to delivering progressive banking solutions while maintaining resilience and trust for the community it serves.

S&P Global Ratings also maintained Baiduri Bank’s credit rating at ‘A-/A-2’ with Stable Outlook in July 2025, reaffirming its strong financial position and prudent risk management.
