UOB inks MOU with Vietnam's FPT to modernise banking with AI and cloud

They seek to modernise banking services in UOB’s key markets.

UOB has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with FPT Corporation, a Vietnam-headquartered technology and IT services provider, to modernise its banking services.

The collaboration seeks to modernise how banking services are developed, delivered, and scaled across UOB’s key markets, leveraging AI, data analytics, automations, cloud, and application programming interfaces (APIs).

The MoU will also establish a platform for UOB, FPT, and ecosystem stakeholders to translate innovation priorities into scalable business opportunities, the two companies said in a statement on 1 June 2026.

It also aims to support crossborder financial services and the development of interconnected financial ecosystems.

The detailed plan of the MoU, including pilot scope, implementation roadmap, governance model and expected outcomes, will be finalized within the next 90 days.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
