I’m thrilled to be attending the Singapore FinTech Festival this year! 🎉 At HyperVerge, I've seen the power of brilliant engineering solutions to prevent financial fraud. But I've realised there is still a great deal of learning left about the evolution of end user behaviour. To gallop towards proactive measures, I'm keen to brainstorm on - 1. Behavioral Economics of Financial Fraud: Understanding the socio-economic drivers and cognitive biases that lead to large-scale fraud. How can predictive analytics help us anticipate and mitigate these risks? 2. Regulatory Analytics: How can we prepare proactively to optimise compliance and efficiency through a user journey and be ready well in time? 3. Advanced Fraud Detection Technologies: What are the latest developments in anomaly detection, and how can state-of-the-art engineering solutions evolve to counter readily available tech tools to fraudsters? I'm way more excited to discover other areas of development in consumer behaviour in related domains in the #SFF MeetUp. Drop me a message to connect over interesting ideas. Aiming to make this as knowledge productive as possible. #FFNews #Fintech #Finance #Banking #Paytech #Payments #Insurtech #Insurance #genai #fintech #crypto #web3 #nft #sff2024 #sff24 #singaporefintechfestival #aiinvesting #ai #branding #strategy #innovation

Thrilled to have attended FinTech Week in Hong Kong! 🌟 The event brought together companies from over 100 countries, making it a hub for innovative opportunities. Some key takeaways: Asia Pacific’s top 10 fintech deals included 3 from Mainland China and 2 from Hong Kong, reaffirming Hong Kong’s position as a prime fintech hub. Hong Kong hosts over 1,100 established fintech companies, many of which are international, highlighting the city’s global appeal. 60 of these companies contributed a staggering $2.4 billion USD to Hong Kong’s economy. Upcoming legislation aims to further open Hong Kong’s fintech market, promising even more growth. While cryptocurrency remains significant, AI is emerging as a key focus for the Hong Kong government, driving innovation in risk management, operational efficiency, and financial crime prevention. Great to see Hong Kong setting the standard for fintech innovation!

Good discussion on private credit tokenisation at the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) stand at the Singapore FinTech Festival Key takeaways: - tokenisation, if done right, lowers the cost of the transactions - thus allowing for lower minimum investment - tokens are like Lego pieces on which new products can be built (think collateralisation, tailored products for each investor) Public blockchains are the way to go but hybrid centralised / decentralised solution is required to protect investors and maintain compliance with securities rules.
