An effort to bridge the financial inclusion gap in Asia – a milestone in the Fintech Industry<\/h4>\n

CompareAsiaGroup<\/a> (CAG), parent company to CompareHero.my<\/a>, has secured US$20 million in Series B1 investment, led by London-based consumer credit giant and global information services company, Experian<\/a>. This investment comes at the backdrop of our Hong Kong-based headquarters to enhance the use of data-driven technologies, offering customers more personalized services coupled with the adoption of digital financial services in the region.<\/p>\n\n

CAG will benefit from utilizing the cloud-native platform Experian One, which will deliver access to Experian\u2019s digital onboarding platform, decision management, and eligibility scoring services. This partnership will also enable a range of new open banking services in Hong Kong, a high-priority market for both companies. Eventually, this will also be rolled out in other markets in accordance with local laws and regulations.
