Chart of the Week: Data & analytics firms clinched 34.4% of Singapore's fintech deals since 2015

Local fintech companies raised more than $9.2b across 389 deals during this period.

Data and analytics companies captured over a third of 34.4% of Singapore’s total fintech investments since 2015, according to a report by Fintech Global.

Singapore fintech companies raised more than $9.2b across 389 transactions during the same period.

The data & analytics subsector has thrived due to the country’s access to a global talent pool, strong infrastructure, Smart Nation push (supports innovation and ambitious tech projects), and their tech-savvy government, the report noted.

The largest transaction in the country during the period was raised by Sea, a Singapore internet platform company who owns the e-commerce platform Shopee. The company raised $1.4b in a post-IPO equity round led by Tencent Holdings in March 2019.

The Other category contains companies operating in Marketplace Lending, Blockchain & Cryptocurrencies, RegTech, Institutional Investment & Trading, Infrastructure & Enterprise Software, and Funding Platforms subsectors, which collectively raised 13.3% of fintech investment in the country.

What is Lorem Ipsum?
What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
