Wing Bank Joins Cambodia-ASEAN Business Summit 2026

Wing Bank continues to take part in regional financial connectivity through its sponsorship and active participation in the Cambodia-ASEAN Business Summit 2026 (CABS 2026), reinforcing the critical role private financial institutions play in driving regional prosperity.

Supporting the summit for the fifth consecutive year, Wing Bank joined over 600 business leaders and policymakers to tackle this year’s theme: "Transforming ASEAN: Innovation, Integration, and Industrial Evolution."  

Mr. Bunthe Hor, Deputy CEO of Wing Bank, underscored the importance of ecosystem-driven connectivity. “Cross-border innovation is not only about technology. It is about building trusted and integrated financial ecosystems that enable businesses to operate seamlessly across ASEAN,” he said. “Wing Bank remains committed to delivering secure, efficient, and inclusive solutions that advance trade, investment mobility, and long-term economic growth.” 

Presided over by Samdech Moha Borvor Thipadei Hun Manet, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Cambodia, the March 3–4 event at Sofitel Phnom Penh Phokeethra highlighted Cambodia’s drive for deeper regional integration and private‑sector growth. 

As ASEAN economies rapidly integrate, the region's collective success depends heavily on how easily capital can move across borders. Wing Bank is actively solving this challenge. By building advanced digital banking infrastructure and forging strategic international alliances—such as its recent partnership with CIMB Singapore to boost cross-border financial corridors—the bank is actively bridging regional markets. 

For the everyday Cambodian enterprise, this high-level integration delivers immediate, practical benefits. It means a local SME or manufacturer in Cambodia can now securely and instantly pay a supplier in Singapore or other peers in the region, bypassing the slow, expensive hurdles of traditional banking and allowing them to scale beyond domestic borders. 

True regional prosperity requires more than just digital infrastructure; it demands a future-ready workforce. Sheanghai Lao, Wing Bank’s Chief People and Culture Officer, addressed this during a panel on modernizing technical and vocational education. He emphasized that strong collaboration between the government and the private sector is essential to equip young professionals with the digital skills required for an Industry 4.0 economy. 

With ASEAN’s population of more than 600 million and supply chains becoming increasingly interconnected, financial interoperability, digital capability and workforce readiness are now central to regional competitiveness. Wing Bank’s continued engagement in such dialogue underscores its role as a trusted partner empowering businesses operate and grow in an integrated, future‑ready ASEAN economy.
