FinTech

In Singapore, as a leading global financial services centre that is actively moving towards being a smart nation, is positioned as Asia’s hub for fintech innovation. Within the context of a sandbox regulatory environment, this brings attendant legal challenges, such as those arising from new digital assets, financial services regulation, securities regulation, data protection and privacy, intellectual property, and contract and consumer laws.

 

In this emergent sector, RHTLaw Asia has worked with international companies in the financial services and technology sectors, providing a wide variety of legal and regulatory solutions to issues faced by more than 200 FinTech platforms globally. Our approach is practical and risk-focused, with an objective of facilitating our clients’ business objectives.
