Our Strategy

A semi-circular chart illustrating the evolution of financial infrastructure from enabling/enabling infrastructure to overlay services and traditional finance to commerce-driven services. The chart is divided into sections: digital payment cards/wallets, banking infrastructure, regulatory framework, exchanges/blockchain, embedded finance, B2B payments/lending, payment services, wealth tech insurtech, reg tech risk management, and green finance/ESG.

The team members running 01Fintech are all ex-Fintech executives who bring a tremendous wealth of experience in the global payments space… Having investors who understand, and have experience, in our ecosystem is extremely valuable. 01Fintech is unique in that it has strong links in both China/Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia which will be important for our current and future development plans.
