SFA and Thomson Reuters join forces in battle against financial crime

They will tap financial institutions, local universities, and startups in Singapore for the initiatives.

Singapore FinTech Association (SFA) joined forces with Thomson Reuters to launch projects and initiatives focusing on leveraging emerging technologies to solve issues surrounding financial crime, an announcement revealed.

The tie-up will work closely with financial institutions, local universities and startups in Singapore to roll out their initiatives.

“Financial crime is a serious and growing issue for businesses in every industry,” SFA president Chia Hock Lai said. “The Singapore FinTech Association is delighted to partner with a world-class organisation such as Thomson Reuters to find ways to tackle it together.”

According to a Thomson Reuters report, Asia-Pacific firms lose US$166b in turnover due to financial crimes.

“Financial crime remains a huge issue globally as well as in APAC,” Thomson Reuters Labs Asia region head Sanjna Parasrampuria commented. “However, we believe emerging technologies will help to find new solutions to combat this widespread problem.”

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.
