Ex-Temasek banker emerging as active fintech investor

Singapore

AN OLD hand in the banking industry has moved quietly into the fintech space, seeing vast opportunities in the consumer finance and SME lending space in this part of the world.

Ex-Temasek banker Francis Rozario's private outfit, Asia Capital and Advisors, has put about US$40 million into four early-stage fintech transactions, the Singapore-based investor told The Business Times in an interview. Most of these deals were completed in the last couple of years, reflecting the growth of the fintech industry in Singapore.
