Sharing the same ambition to develop and expand InsurTech sector in the Southeast Asia, AMTD Digital completed the acquisition of PolicyPal via its innovative “Fusion-in” programme in June 2020, which was the first controlling stake acquisition in the Southeast Asian InsurTech industry since the outbreak of Covid-19 pandemic. The acquisition does not only unlock the full potential of digital network by utilizing the AMTD SpiderNet’s comprehensive and powerful resources, but also marks the milestone for AMTD to empower promising FinTech players in Asia and beyond. With the “Fusion-in” programme, AMTD Digital also successfully introduced some strategic shareholders, including 500 Startups, a leading global venture capital firm.
