    With the launch of the OFB, it will enable the handling of remittances and support investments made by OFWs as well as help build financial literacy. Aside from that, the presence of the OFB will be used as a tool in reshaping the country’s economic sector, making it more inclusive for the working class and other Filipinos residing abroad.

    Although the OFB was originally a financial institution for OFWs, its coverage was expanded, making it available for other Filipinos based overseas to take part and be allowed to invest in the country.
