Elite Resorts of Asia Pacific is proud to have participated with OCBC Bank in Singapore with the launch of their new OCBC Elite World Card on September 29, 2010. This new card is focused on building up its premier banking customer base and making the most of its newly renamed private banking arm, the Bank of Singapore. As this card was designed for a growing group of seasoned global consumers who are prepared to pay for hard-to-come-by luxury products and unique experiences, Elite Resorts of Asia Pacific was a natural marketing partner.
