OUR EXPERTISE IN HELPING SERIAL ENTREPRENEURS EXPAND
Scaling in your core business
Vertical integration
Some serial entrepreneurs pursue vertical integration for the advantages it offers including greater control over supply chain, and the ability to offer lower prices while increasing market presence. This may be done by controlling the manufacturing of their products or gaining access of channels to market their products & services directly.
Complementary businesses in adjacent industries
The addition of complementary business offers the opportunity to expand within existing markets where you are already operating, build new streams of revenue and attract new customers. Many serial entrepreneurs employ this strategy to better serve their customers.

Hear from our Serial Entrepreneurs
"OCBC is more than a bank to us. We see them as a partner who walks the journey together with us. The Serial entrepreneur team looks at the group holistically and assists us in a comprehensive fashion. They have been instrumental in our growth, providing us with financing and digital solutions beyond the usual banking mechanism."
Gideon Lam & Gabriel LamDirectors, Shalom Movers
"Banking is an integral part of running a business. At OCBC, how our group of companies operates, our plans and business aspiration are well understood by the bank. In addition, having a dedicated relationship manager as a single point-of-contact ensures we have timely support to operate and grow our business.”
K.E. TanDirector, Bio-X Global Group
“After running Josiah Montessori since 1996 and expanding the brand to 5 centres, we saw an opportunity to leverage on our expertise to start a sub-brand, My Learning Haven. Despite it being a new business, we were able to get a loan even before incorporation based on our past business track record and this allowed us to launch the sub-brand faster than we thought possible.”
Wendy Tan & Lena LimCo-founders, Josiah Montessori
“The willingness of the bank to assess us as a group benefitted us greatly. It ensured that we were able to obtain loans despite that at the individual company level, we may be too young or our sales turnover too small. This provides us with the firepower to embark on new opportunities that arise to further expand our business.”
Dr Tan Yuan ZiT Medical Group
"OCBC, specifically the serial entrepreneur team, always listens to our needs. When we share our business plans with them, they make special efforts to understand our business and create support solutions. Being a proactive partner, OCBC has helped us to established our footprints regionally even during the Covid period where things were uncertain. Last year, we managed set foot in New Jersey, USA, to establish our first local branch office and to apply for its local NVOCC license. Currently, we have branch offices in over 9 countries."
Jay PrakashDirector and Founder, GGL
“The circuit breaker made us rethink and transform our business using technology in new ways to focus on e-learning solutions and parent school communications. Our Education Specialist and the bank provided the financial support we needed and this had allowed us to expand beyond the education sector into other industries, adapting our systems to directly integrate safe-entry QR codes.”
