    RAZER is still mulling over applying for a Singapore digital banking licence but if it proceeds to meet the Dec 31 deadline, the gaming lifestyle brand will be gunning for one of two retail licences on offer.

    Speaking to The Business Times, Razer chief strategy officer Lee Li Meng noted that as a consumer brand with strong reach among millennials and youth, "it would not make as much sense for us to apply for a wholesale licence".
