ABA Bank and CWEA Partner to Expand Financial Support for Women Entrepreneurs in Cambodia

ABA Bank and the Cambodia Women Entrepreneurs Association (CWEA) have signed a memorandum of understanding to support the Women Entrepreneurs Financial Support Hub (WE Financial Support Hub), an initiative established to strengthen access to financing for women entrepreneurs and women-owned small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Cambodia.

The partnership brings together ABA Bank’s financial expertise, financing capabilities, digital banking solutions and broad range of loan products with CWEA’s extensive network and commitment to supporting women entrepreneurs. These key resources are intended to help them identify sources of financing to meet their financial needs, strengthen day-to-day business operations, access capital and obtain the solutions they need to grow their businesses over time.

The signing ceremony, held on September 23, 2026, was attended by Ms. Tham Romneiy, Executive Vice President and Head of Partner Relations at ABA Bank, and Her Excellency Chan Phary, President of CWEA, along with teams from both organizations.

The collaboration under the Women Entrepreneurs Financial Support Hub also reflects the shared commitment of ABA Bank and CWEA to promoting an inclusive and supportive business environment for women-owned SMEs in Cambodia.

Looking ahead, ABA Bank will continue to support initiatives that contribute to financial inclusion and women’s economic empowerment, while continuing to play an important role in the country’s broader development.
