MBFC Overview and Access
Overview
Marina Bay Financial Centre (MBFC) is a landmark complex that embodies Singapore’s status as a global financial hub.
Major financial institutions such as DBS Bank, HSBC Bank, the World Bank, and Standard Chartered Bank have offices here, solidifying MBFC’s role as a key financial center in the region.
Comprising three office towers and two residential towers, MBFC was constructed in two phases and celebrated its grand opening in 2013 with then Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong in attendance.
Access
MBFC is strategically located in the Marina Bay district, directly connected to the Downtown MRT station.
It also features underground connectivity to Raffles Place MRT station, a major transit hub in the CBD.
Additionally, MBFC is within walking distance of both Shenton Way and Marina Bay MRT stations, offering excellent accessibility.
Office Tower
MBFC features three office towers, each known for its distinctive characteristics and superior design.
Tower I.
The 33-story Tower I hosts many international financial institutions, including Standard Chartered Bank (UK) and renowned law firms such as Baker & McKenzie.
タワーⅡ
Tower II, a 50-story high-rise and the tallest tower in MBFC, is designed to maximize office space and natural light.
It is equipped with environmentally friendly, energy-efficient systems.
Tenants include BHP Group, the world’s largest mining company, and HSBC Bank.

The app enables seamless access through the MBFC lobby gates and facilitates participation in community events such as yoga sessions and calligraphy workshops.
