    THE Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) does not have to choose between financial institutions (FIs) and new players in the financial technology (fintech) industry, a board member of the central bank said on Monday.

    Ong Ye Kung, who is Education Minister (Higher Education and Skills) and Second Defence Minister, said: "We take an even-handed approach, encouraging established and new players to compete, collaborate and innovate."
