This robust portfolio and focus on innovation have been pivotal to Mox’s impressive performance throughout the APAC region.

Mox’s Rapid Service Release Gains Recognition as One of World’s Fastest-Growing Digital Banks


Attending Money 20/20 Asia in Bangkok, Thailand and speaking at the panel discussion themed “Fueling the Future: The Rise of Open Finance in Asia” on 25 April 2024, Barbaros Uygun, CEO of Mox, said, “This recognition underscores Mox’s success in setting the global benchmark for digital banking innovation and transforming retail banking — all from our base in Hong Kong. Our focus isn’t solely on speed; it’s about understanding the dynamic needs of the Hong Kong market and delivering solutions with unmatched agility. We’re proud of our rapid growth, but even more so of our unwavering commitment to putting our customers’ evolving needs first.”

Dan Jones, Partner of Oliver Wyman, said, “As a young bank just launched three and a half years ago, Mox’s performance has been extraordinary when comparing to other global digital banks, particularly in its products and service release velocity.”

In just three years, Mox has developed itself as a full digital bank with a broad array of product spectrum spanning across deposits, foreign exchange, payments, personal financial management, cards, lending, investments covering equity and fund trading. It is actively pursuing its aspiration to become the main bank for customers and meet their diverse banking needs. For a bank just three years old, close to 30% of Mox’s customer base has four or more products with the bank and one of the highest transaction volume per card in Hong Kong.

Since its launch in 2020, Mox has gained numerous local, regional, and global recognition as a leader in digital banking[1]. In addition, Mox’s tech stack and processes have been successfully ported to Trust Bank in Singapore, accelerating Trust Bank to be the first digital bank launched.

Mox has made significant progress. It holds Hong Kong’s seventh largest credit cards book among all retail banks in the city[2] and has accumulated more than 550,000 customers, representing more than 10% of bankable population in Hong Kong. Around one in five people under the age of 40 in Hong Kong are Mox customers.

CPA Australia: Nearly seven in ten Hong Kong small businesses expect growth amid cybersecurity threats


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 23 April 2024 – CPA Australia’s Asia Pacific (APAC) Small Business Survey 2023-24 shows Hong Kong small businesses have growing confidence in their business and the economy, while facing increased cybersecurity risks.

CPA Australia Asia-Pacific Small Business Survey 2023-24 Hong Kong Results Infographic

The survey results show that 69 per cent of small businesses in Hong Kong anticipate growing in 2024. The survey further reveals increased confidence in the local economy, with 73 per cent expecting it to grow this year. However, Hong Kong ranked top among surveyed APAC markets on the expected threat of a cyber-attack.

CPA Australia’s annual survey collected views from 4,222 small businesses in 11 markets across the Asia-Pacific region, including Singapore, Mainland China and Australia to understand their business performance and outlook. The survey included 324 respondents from Hong Kong. With 56 per cent of surveyed businesses reporting growth in 2023, many Hong Kong small businesses are confident and benefiting from the gradual revival of the local economy.

Mr Cliff Ip, Divisional President of CPA Australia 2024 in Greater China

Mr Cliff Ip, Divisional President of CPA Australia 2024 in Greater China explained, “Bolstered by an improving economy and various government support programs, ranging from an accommodating financing environment to schemes promoting digitalisation and marketing, Hong Kong small businesses made a steady recovery last year and most project a mild expansion in 2024.”

Hong Kong respondents were most likely to nominate entering new markets as the factor that made the most positive contribution to their business in 2023. This pioneering spirit is expected to continue this year, with 79 per cent of respondents expecting revenue from overseas sales to grow, compared to the survey average of 50 per cent.

“An increasing adoption of e-commerce and digital tools enabled many small businesses in Hong Kong to capitalise overseas opportunities,” Ip said, “Besides, Hong Kong small businesses have developed a strong innovation culture in recent years, giving them a competitive advantage to promote and sell their new products and services outside Hong Kong.”

Business growth and market expansion created new jobs in the small business sector. Forty-six per cent of Hong Kong small businesses increased their number of employees last year, beating the survey average of 32 per cent. This strong hiring intention is expected to persist into 2024, with 52 per cent expecting to add to their headcount.

However, increasing costs to cover activities in new markets and local operations became the most detrimental factor to their businesses last year, which most likely contributed to their strong demand for external financing. Eighty-three per cent of surveyed small businesses sought funds in 2023. The most common reasons were to purchase capital assets and support business growth. Eighty-nine per cent will or may seek external funds this year, with covering increasing expenses the most cited reason.

Ip stated, “The main purposes of financing shifted from survival in 2022 to purchase capital assets and buttress growth in 2023. This change illustrated that many resilient SMEs had overcome the economic downturn and rebounded at full speed after normalcy.”

Seventy-six per cent of respondents perceived obtaining external financing as an easy task in 2023, and 74 per cent expect this favourable financing condition to persist in 2024.

“HKSAR Government’s effort to ease the financing conditions such as the SME Financing Guarantee Scheme (“SFGS”) have made it relatively easier for eligible applicants to obtain financing from banks. In this year’s Budget, the government has further extended the application period for the 80 per cent and 90 per cent Guarantee Product under the SFGS. The recent measures introduced by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority also prioritise expediting applications for these products, assisting small businesses in obtaining the necessary funding for their further development.”

Prevalence of technology adoption among small businesses in Hong Kong is another growth driver. Last year, 81 percent of Hong Kong’s small businesses received over 10 per cent of their revenue from online sales, outstripping counterparts in other markets and up enormously from 43 per cent in 2019. Another 86 per cent of respondents indicated that over 10 per cent of revenue were received through digital payment methods, a remarkable increase of over 30 percentage points compared to 2019.

“Changing consumer behaviour and a series of government schemes supporting digitalisation such as Technology Voucher Programme have undoubtedly driven this transformation. The offering of E-consumption vouchers in each of the past three years, alongside the gradual adoption of online shopping and food ordering habits, has compelled small businesses to undergo digital transformation to stay relevant and competitive in the market.”

Yet, rapid digitalisation has triggered cybersecurity risks. Alarmingly, 64 per cent of surveyed businesses indicated that they had lost time and/or money due to cybersecurity incidents last year and seven-in-ten concerned about the potential cyberattacks in 2024, both results were the highest of the APAC surveyed markets.

“Threats from cyberattacks such as phishing attacks have caused direct losses. Though two-third of surveyed respondents have recently reviewed their cybersecurity protections, business owners must keep allocating resources on enhancing tools to protect data and information, providing staff training, and consult with IT experts.” Ip reminded.

Victory Securities – The First and Only Participating Dealer that accepts in-kind subscription for the First Batch of Bitcoin and Ethereum Spot ETFs


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 23 April 2024 – The Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong has recently approved the launch of the first batch of Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs, making Hong Kong the first city in Asia to embrace virtual asset spot ETFs, meanwhile the first batch of Ethereum spot ETFs in the world. ETF issuers, namely Harvest Global Investments, China Asset Management (ChinaAMC), and Bosera Asset Management (International), plan to launch Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs, which are innovative products leading the global financial market. Among the few participating dealers in this batch of ETFs issuance, Victory Securities is the first and only securities firm in history that offers in-kind subscription for both Ethereum and Bitcoin spot ETFs. In addition to cash subscription, customers can now create ETF units in primary market by depositing virtual assets via Victory Securities’ token-in-token-out solution.

This virtual asset spot ETF has been a ground-breaking product in the global financial market. Currently, the United States stock markets only supports Bitcoin spot ETFs, and it only allows fiat subscription and redemption. In Hong Kong, only qualified professional investors are eligible to invest into US Bitcoin spot ETFs. This makes a huge difference when we compared to the Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs in Hong Kong. The approved ETFs in Hong Kong can support both in-cash and in-kind creation and redemption, allowing investors to directly subscribe to and redeem ETFs using Bitcoin or Ethereum. Hong Kong VA spot ETFs involve VA dealing, conducting in-kind creation through Victory Securities can significantly shorten the transaction processing time between broker-dealer and banks. The cut-off time for in-kind creation is also later than that for in-cash creation, providing customers with a wider time window for making investment decisions. Victory Securities has also recently developed an APP and web-based portal named “VictoryX” and will provide the function of creation and redemption for the VA spot ETF units, offering a more convenient and efficient trading services to clients.

In mid-April, Victory Securities announced the launch of the first securities and virtual asset trading APP in Hong Kong, which will also support the deposit and withdrawal of virtual assets by the end of the month, making it the only broker-dealer in Hong Kong with a token-in-token-out solution. Mr. Kennix Chan, Executive Director of Victory Securities, said, “Among Asian markets, we can see that only Hong Kong has a full scale regulatory framework for virtual assets and both the government and regulator simultaneously supports the issuance of VA spot ETFs. In-kind creation and redemption of these ETFs will soon become one of the market’s major trend. Victory Securities is honored to play a significant role in this milestone in the development of the virtual asset market in Hong Kong. As a leading virtual asset securities firm, Victory Securities continues to collaborate with the industry to provide innovative products and allocation solutions to investors, leading the industry into a new era of virtual asset investment.” In addition to providing in-kind and in-cash creation and redemption services, Victory Securities also allows investors to trade the ETFs through our securities accounts after its listing, providing an all-rounded, secure, reliable, and convenient channel for virtual asset investment.

The market size of Bitcoin spot ETFs in the United States has experienced explosive growth in a short period of time, with net inflows reaching billions of US dollars. Victory Securities expects that with the listing of virtual asset spot ETFs in Hong Kong, virtual assets will seamlessly integrate with traditional finance. Retail investors and institutional fund managers in the Asia-Pacific region will now have one more channel to enter the virtual asset space through Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs. This is a great opportunity for Hong Kong to become the world’s second-largest market for virtual asset ETFs or even the second-largest ETF market.

AIO Studios announce premiere of AI-driven biopic, ‘Putin,’ directed by Patryk Vega


WARSAW, POLAND – Newsaktuell – 23 April 2024 – AIO Studios have announced September 26, 2024, as the premiere date for Putin, the latest film from celebrated Polish director Patryk Vega.

The recently released 2.5-minute trailer promises a detailed analysis of the Russian leader’s life and psyche over 60 years, rendered in ultra-realistic detail through advanced AI technology. Viewers will be able to get up close and personal with the Kremlin leader’s story, touching on some of the most intimate moments of his life.

“Inviting Putin to the studio for 20,000 shots wasn’t an option,” says director Patryk Vega, “and the archival materials available online didn’t allow for training a high-resolution deepfake model suitable for cinematic use. As a result, after nearly two years of development, we’ve created our pioneering AI-driven technology, enabling us to craft the cinematic character without relying on a real human model.”

Filmed over three years in locations such as the Russian Federation, Ukraine, Israel, Syria, Jordan, and Poland, the movie’s timeliness is one of its most significant aspects. At one point, the narrative shifts to present day, offering viewers insights into the internal mechanisms of Russian politics that influenced the perception of the presidential elections in 2024. To enhance the film’s realism, director Vega cooperated with Ukrainian cinematographers who recorded authentic events during city bombardments and soldiers’ combat.

“Putin is not just a film,” Vega states. “It’s a response to a global quest to understand the motives and actions of one of the most controversial figures in contemporary politics. My production’s mission is to provide viewers with a ‘user manual’ for Putin, aiming to alleviate the fear and uncertainty that dominate today’s world.”

Sasin Impact Entrepreneurship Week 2024: Inspire, Connect, Transform for a better, smarter, sustainable world


BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OuReach Newswire – 23 April 2024 – Sasin School of Management in Bangkok, Thailand, is gearing up to host the Sasin Impact Entrepreneurship Week 2024 (SasinIEW) from June 19-23, 2024. Focused on entrepreneurship, innovation, inclusiveness, impact, and sustainability, the event aims to foster collaboration among diverse stakeholders, including entrepreneurs, startups, investors, policymakers, business students, and the public.

4. Mr. Lars Svensson, Chief Executive of Sasin Sustainability & Entrepreneurship Center

The following three key components of SasinIEW will translate this mission into practice. For the first time outside North America and Europe, the GCEC meeting will make its Asia debut in the “New Frontier: Bangkok Summit 2024,which echoes the theme of “Inclusive Entrepreneurship Driving Impact” to drive societal and business change. The landing of the Global Consortium of Entrepreneurship Centers (GCEC) in Thailand was always bound to happen as Professor Ian Fenwick, Ph.D., Director of Sasin School of Management said, “Asia, of course, is home to the world’s best entrepreneurs and the world’s most successful entrepreneurs. They would inevitably come to Asia.” He further pointed out the vital position of Southeast Asia as an entrepreneurial hub: “Southeast Asia is one of the fastest growing regions of the world. It is where things happen and where things change. And I think entrepreneurship in Southeast Asia is very much the engine for growth.”

The Bangkok Business Challenge 2024 (BBC 2024), powered by SCG Chemicals (SCGC), is Sasin’s long-standing student startup competition and the longest-running of its kind in Asia. Starting as a local event in 2002, it expanded into a global arena in 2008. Recent winners from the United States, Sweden, and Singapore are proof of its international reach and acclaim. Corresponding to the positioning of Sasin, which is rooted in impact and transformation, sustainability and impact account for 20% of the evaluation criteria in this competition. “We need to transform the way we live. We need to transform the way we do business. We need to transform the way we think. If we continue our present track, there will be no world for our children and our children’s children. We need to transform, and we need to do it soon. Business and entrepreneurship don’t just need to make money. They also need to make positive impacts. They need to work towards this change that’s needed, this transformation,” said the director of Sasin.

The Family Enterprise Case Competition – Asia Pacific 2024 (FECC-AP 2024) is the third component. As the current global champion, Sasin will organize the first Asian leg of this contest to shine a spotlight on the student group demonstrating the most adept strategic analysis of a regional family business case who will advance to the final round scheduled next January in Vermont, USA.

Regarding the vision of SasinIEW, Mr. Lars Svensson, Chief Executive of Sasin Sustainability & Entrepreneurship Center, said that this impactful week would kindle multilateral discourse and dialogue through the three inclusive impact entrepreneurship events, BBC, FECC, and GCEC. “This is the first time we gather three interlinked events under one umbrella. With the strong interest and positive response we have had, we intend to build this into an annual event that, in an inclusive manner, brings together academia, the public and private sector, students, MNCs and SMEs, government institutions, start-ups, and NGOs to ensure a broad representation of perspectives and ideas to elevate the discussion and lay the foundation for networking and new connections across the stakeholders and the events and allow the dialogue to continue beyond the Sasin Impact Entrepreneurship Week and our region.”

Apart from energizing discussions, there are networking opportunities for participants and partners to seize. Associate Professor Piyachart Phiromswad, Ph.D., Deputy Director of Learning Solutions, Sasin School of Management, elaborates on this aspect that the week will “allow for broad, engaging discussions and thought leadership sharing but also plenty full of dialogue, discussions and making connections, not only within the event they are directly participating in, but also the possibility of visiting and participating in the other events and network across all events during breaks, common dinners and workshops. We expect new dynamic connections between parties and individuals, sowing the seeds for new partnerships and collaborations across individuals, organizations, sectors, and geographies.” And the cherry on top is that participants can immerse themselves in the charms of Thailand. “When in Bangkok and Thailand, the gateway to Southeast Asia, they will have a great experience not only from the people they will interact with, but an experience of true Thai hospitality, great food, and the pulse and energy from the most visited city in the world, Bangkok.”

To emphasize Bangkok and Sasin as a hub for entrepreneurship-driven sustainability, Mr. Dibyendu Bose, Deputy Director of Strategy, Innovation & Impact, Sasin School of Management, encouraged “all participants from Sasin Impact Entrepreneurship Week to participate in the Hult Prize Global Summit hosted at Chulalongkorn Campus and its Final pitch on Sunday 23 June, where students and sustainability entrepreneurs from around the world compete for a 1 million USD prize. The Hult Prize participants are invited to participate in the BBC pitch and GCEC events. This opens additional dimensions of discussions, networking, and meetings.”

After over four decades, Sasin has solidified its position as a leading business school in Thailand. The Impact Entrepreneurship Week aligns closely with its core beliefs that entrepreneurship should fundamentally reshape the approach to business, sustainability, and societal issues, working towards a thriving world. Mark your calendars for SasinIEW in June to “inspire, connect, transform for a better, smarter, sustainable world together.”

Professor Ian Fenwick, Ph.D., Director of Sasin School of Management concluded with an earnest invitation, “If you’re really interested in startups, come to the Bangkok Business Challenge. If you’re a case competition fiend, come to the Asian Family Enterprise Case Competition. And if you’re running an entrepreneurship center or wish you were or want to participate in one, come to the GCEC. And we hope as many people as possible will attend all three.”

LONG AN, Vietnam (AP) — There is one thing that distinguishes 60-year-old Vo Van Van’s rice fields from a mosaic of thousands of other emerald fields across Long An province in southern Vietnam’s Mekong Delta: It isn’t entirely flooded.
