UOB's U-Series was developed with a deep understanding of industry needs, and offers a comprehensive suite of sustainable financing solutions that seamlessly connects the entire value chain- from manufacturers, contractors and end-users. Designed to support businesses and individuals in their transition towards environmentally friendly operations, U-Series enables all stakeholders to benefit from efficient access to sustainable financing, enabling them to adopt green initiatives and achieve their decarbonisation goals effectively.

The U-Series comprises four key programmes:

• U-Build: U-Build is Asia's first integrated green building financing platform, aiming to bridge the gap between businesses, homeowners, regional governments and industry experts by offering straightforward processes to access sustainable financing. It leverages UOB’s frameworks to optimise building operating expenses and promote the development of green buildings.
• U-Drive: This initiative focuses on providing financing solutions for the adoption of electric vehicles and related infrastructure.
• U-Energy: U-Energy offers financing solutions for energy efficiency projects. Through the adoption of energy-efficient technologies, businesses can reduce their energy consumption and lower their carbon footprints.
• U-Solar: This award-winning programme provides green financing options to reduce the upfront investment for solar energy projects, enabling businesses to save on electricity bills while contributing to environmental sustainability.

These programmes are supported by the Smart City Sustainable Finance Framework, part of UOB’s range of sector- specific frameworks developed to help businesses save time and resources. By simplifying access to sustainable financing, we demonstrate our commitment to facilitate a just transition towards a low-carbon economy while supporting the diverse economic needs of the ASEAN region.
