2025 ACE Recognition | Standard Chartered Bank (Myanmar Representative Office)

Standard Chartered Bank contributed of USD 100,000 to the British Red Cross, the Bank's emergency response partner, in support of the ongoing humanitarian relief efforts following the devastating 7.7 magnitude earthquake that struck central Myanmar (especially Mandalay and Sagaing region) on 28 March 2025. Ongoing aftershocks have further complicated rescue and recovery efforts.

The donation will help the British Red Cross provide critical emergency support, including food, clean water, psychosocial support, medical assistance, and essential relief items to those effected. With infrastructure damaged and basic services disrupted, the humanitarian needs in Myanmar remain acute.

Standard Chartered has also mobilized internal fundraising efforts, with a dedicated Red Cross donation link created for employees across all markets who wish to contribute personally to the relief efforts.

The Bank continues to stay connected with local humanitarian partners and is exploring further avenues to support recovery efforts in the region. Please see our website for more information.
