SINGAPORE'S fintech investments rebounded in the second quarter of 2020 to US$278 million, 4.1 times the US$68 million recorded in the first quarter, the Singapore FinTech Association (SFA) and management consulting firm Oliver Wyman said in a report on Wednesday.

From 2015 to 2019, about 65 per cent of fintech funding in South-east Asia was directed to Singapore businesses, nearly four times that of the funding received by Indonesia, the next-largest market.
