Singapore retains top position as the region’s FinTech hub while mature players dominate mega deals

SINGAPORE, Nov. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ASEAN’s Financial Technology (FinTech) sector has entered a leaner phase in 2025, recording its lowest funding amount since 2016 and fewest deals in the past decade. Amid funding headwinds driven by market volatility and heightened caution among investors, FinTechs that captured attention obtained larger investments, particularly mature late-stage FinTechs whose resilience helped them secure the region’s largest deals, contributing to the bulk of total funding. These insights are part of the FinTech in ASEAN 2025: Navigating the New Realities report, jointly launched today by UOB, PwC Singapore and the Singapore FinTech Association (SFA).

Across the six largest ASEAN economies^[1], both funding amount and number of deals declined in the first three quarters of this year (9M25) compared to the same period last year. Total funding secured by region fell 36 per cent to around US$835 million, while the number of deals plunged 60 per cent to 53 deals. Although overall funding declined, the region saw a 42 per cent jump in average deal size to US$21.4 million in 9M25, signalling stronger investor confidence in FinTechs that successfully differentiate themselves in a competitive landscape.

As investors de-risk amid an uncertain macroenvironment, their focus continues to shift from early-stage FinTechs chasing rapid growth to those demonstrating profitability, scalability and sustainability. This trend is reflected in mature, late-stage FinTechs capturing 67 per cent of ASEAN’s total funding in 9M25, a 24-percentage-point increase year-on-year (yoy). The average funding per late-stage deal also soared by 40 per cent yoy to around US$112 million, driven by three mega deals totalling nearly US$450 million.

Ms Janet Young, Managing Director and Group Head, Channels & Digitalisation and Strategic Communications & Brand, UOB, said, “As ASEAN’s FinTech sector recalibrates, innovators continue to show remarkable resilience. The rise in average deal size and strong performance of late-stage companies underscore investor confidence in the region’s long-term potential as a thriving digital economy. We believe that innovation is the key to driving sustainable growth and financial inclusion. Guided by our commitment to building the future of ASEAN, we will continue to foster collaboration, support the catalysing of new solutions and empower businesses to seize the opportunities in the digital future.”

Ms Wong Wanyi, FinTech Leader, PwC Singapore, said, “Over the past decade, the FinTech landscape in ASEAN has seen significant growth and innovation. Mobile payments and Artificial Intelligence-driven platforms have boosted financial inclusion. Collaboration among ASEAN countries has enhanced cross-border transactions and economic integration. Despite slower funding and lower valuations, investor confidence persists, fuelled by sophisticated FinTechs that have successfully adapted to market shifts, putting them ahead of the curve. Such resilience is often grounded in strong risk management, agile business models, comprehensive organic and inorganic expansion strategies, as well as effective stakeholder communication. Capital is expected to increasingly flow toward ventures with strong value propositions and execution excellence. If we continue in this trajectory, FinTech will keep ASEAN at the forefront of global innovation.”

Ms Holly Fang, President, Singapore FinTech Association, said, “Singapore’s position as the region’s leading FinTech hub reflects the strength of its collaborative ecosystem, where regulators, financial institutions, and innovators work together to drive meaningful change and sustainable growth. The sector’s focus on sustainable growth and profitability marks an important step in the maturation of the FinTech ecosystem, where firms are being tested on their ability to sustain innovation amid an increasingly volatile and uncertain environment. As the industry continues to mature, SFA remains committed to supporting FinTechs at every stage of growth, fostering innovation, and strengthening regional connectivity to advance Singapore’s FinTech ecosystem.”

Singapore reinforces its position as ASEAN’s FinTech powerhouse

Singapore continues to cement its position as the region’s FinTech hub, attracting 87 per cent of total funding in 9M25, amounting to more than US$725 million. This marks a significant rise from 57 per cent of funding share in 9M24 and 65 per cent in 9M23, underscoring the city-state’s status as the preferred base for FinTechs.

Singapore accounted for more than half of the region’s 53 deals in 9M25, primarily in blockchain for financial services and investment technology. Pre-series and early-stage investments made up 79 per cent of the country’s deals, highlighting opportunities for budding innovation. Notably, eight out of ASEAN’s top ten funded FinTechs for 9M25 are based in Singapore, of which five are late-stage firms.

Outside the city-state, FinTechs in the other key ASEAN markets faced a more challenging fundraising environment. Indonesia, trailing behind Singapore, saw its share of funding fell from 20 per cent in 9M24 to a mere four per cent in 9M25, with deals dropping from 23 to 10. Philippines, tying with Indonesia in the second place, clinched its position with five deals, one of which was alternative lending firm Salmon which secured ASEAN’s sixth most funded deal as an early-stage firm. The remaining three markets, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, collectively accounted for less than 10 per cent of total funding in 9M25 and saw noticeably fewer deals.

Despite the harsh funding winter and intensified competition, ASEAN remains resilient to support FinTech innovation. The sector’s pivot toward operational excellence, realistic valuations, and sustainable growth lays the foundation for a more mature and resilient ecosystem, putting ASEAN’s FinTechs to a test on their ability to sustain innovation in a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) world.

The FinTech in ASEAN 2025: Navigating the New Realities report was launched at Singapore FinTech Festival today. For the full report, please visit go.uob.com/fintech2025.

HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, Nov. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Michelin is turning its “All Sustainable” vision into reality, balancing People, Planet, and Profit, with open innovation and advanced technologies at its core.

A harmonious balance of People, Planet, and Performance

Facing climate and economic challenges, Michelin is committed to balancing People, Profit, and Planet, guiding all R&D, corporate culture, and community programs. The Group fosters a diverse and safe workplace with 129,800 employees in 175 countries, guarantees a decent minimum wage through its “Living Wage” policy, and supports employees in hardship via “One Care.”

Through its “Lifelong Learning” program, Michelin provides 5 million training hours annually and co-founded “Hall 32” to train future industry technicians.

For the Planet, Michelin is pursuing its 2030 goals: 40% of tire materials from recycled or renewable sources, 100% sustainable natural rubber, and a 47% cut in operational CO₂ compared to 2019. In Southeast Asia, removing plastic packaging from motorcycle tires saves 300 tons annually. In Vietnam, shifting freight to sea and utilizing biomass boilers and solar power at the Binh Duong factory reduces CO₂ emissions by over 3,700 tons per year.

“No development project can be imagined without considering all its economic, social and environmental impacts. Similarly, no single player can meet the collective challenges facing the world. Michelin’s “All-sustainable” approach exemplifies this multifaceted need for collaboration, which has become essential between all stakeholders, for the benefit of civil society as a whole.” – Mr. Florent Menegaux, Chairman of Michelin Group shared.

Making mobility more innovative and more sustainable

An open innovative mindset is central to Michelin’s culture, driving progress and growth opportunities. The Group partners with research institutes, universities, and companies such as Factolab in France, contributing to recycling initiatives like BlackCycle and WhiteCycle.

Michelin leverages AI to create robotic solutions for handling flexible composites and accelerates adoption through collaborations with Microsoft and global leaders. At the same time, it advances maritime sustainability with technologies that help decarbonize global shipping.

Maritime transport accounts for around 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions and faces mounting pressure to reduce its carbon footprint in line with the IMO’s 2050 Net Zero target. In this context, Michelin’s WISAMO (Wing Sail Mobility) project has opened up a sustainable mobility solution for the industry.

Tests show that WISAMO can reduce CO₂ emissions by up to 20% on existing vessels, and over 50% for new builds. Developed by Michelin’s R&D teams in Switzerland, the inflatable wing sail operates efficiently even against the wind and can retract fully to ensure safe navigation.

The system has already debuted a 170 m² sail, adaptable for fishing boats, research ships, and patrol vessels, and can even be installed on yachts. The team is now developing a larger 800 m² version to launch by 2026, underscoring Michelin’s commitment to helping the maritime sector “move cleaner, further, and smarter.”

Michelin has been officially operating in Vietnam since 2009, helping shape the country’s fast-growing mobility sector with solutions that prioritize innovation for a better and more sustainable life in motion. Today, Michelin provides consumers, enterprises, and mobility partners nationwide a wide range of tires for various means of transportation through its authorized distribution network with focus on a retail network named Michelin Car Service which has marked its remarkable milestone of inaugurating its 100th store in August 2025. www.michelin.vn.
