Ping An launches wealth platform for Singapore investors

Lu Global uses facial recognition and AI for its investor onboarding process.

Lu International rolled out its online wealth management platform for accredited investors in Singapore and investors in Asia, an announcement revealed.

Through Lu Global, investors can have easy access to wealth management products that were previously available to mainly private banking and institutional clients. It has 15 products onboard, comprising a mixture of open-ended and closed-ended funds.

As a member of Ping An group, Lu Global will be utilising the group’s technology as the platform utilises a robust risk management system.

“Our technology will play an important role in opening up a fully automated wealth management tool to investors across Asia,” Ping An CIO Jessica Tan said.

The investor onboarding process of Lu Global uses cutting edge technology in the areas of big data, optical character recognition (OCR), GPS verification, facial recognition and artificial intelligence. Facial recognition technology is used to run multi-level checks on investor details including real-time face verification and name screening checks.

Lu Global also adopts strict Know Your Product (KYP) and Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance procedures, alongside an Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and anti-fraud system.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
