Singapore leads SEA in FinTech funding 

It raised US$157.7m in Q3.

Singapore accounted for almost half (49%) of Fintech funding in Southeast Asia in Q3, raising US$157.7m.

Behind Singapore were Jakarta, Indonesia, with US$103.2m funding, and Taguig, Philippines, with US$8.6M.

According to Tracxn, three of the top five funding rounds in Q3 involved Singapore-headquartered firms: Partior (US$60m - Series B), SDAX (US$50m - Series B), and WSPN (US$30m - Seed).

Singapore-based TNB Aura and Farquhar Venture Capital were the third and fourth most active VCs in seed funding, while Temasek took the second spot for early-stage funding.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
