Written by AQUMON Team on 2022-03-03
Unwavering in its mission for greater financial inclusion, AQUMON’s innovations contributing to the WealthTech landscape have earned the company two new prestigious awards recognized within Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area. AQUMON won the KPMG Greater Bay Area Fintech Flying Fish Enterprise Award 20 and also the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Financial Collaboration Innovation Award. Both awards emphasized the increasingly important cross-border financial connectivity between Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area, and AQUMON demonstrated its leading capabilities in bridging the two regions’ financial needs.
AQUMON stood out from over 100 firms and was selected as Greater Bay Area Fintech Flying Fish Enterprises Top 20. Co-organized by KPMG China and supported by the Hong Kong Government’s Innovation and Technology bureau, the Greater Bay Area Fintech Flying Fish Award aims to boost the financial technology industry in the Greater Bay Area and nurture the area’s FinTech ecosystem.
In addition, AQUMON was awarded RMB 300,000 for winning the Contribution Prize for the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Financial Collaboration Innovation Award. The award was jointly set up by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) and the Shenzhen Municipal Financial Regulatory Bureau (SZ FRB), with a view to encouraging the development and application of fintech in the two cities.
“We’re honoured and grateful for the opportunity to showcase our solutions and win these awards. It is a great recognition of our efforts to empower more people in Hong Kong and the GBA through FinTech. With the proactive support and initiatives from the governments in both regions, we are excited to be part of building the FinTech future to enhance cross-border finances in the region.”
Head of Quantitative Research & Co-Founder, Dr. Don Huang, also added that AQUMON is an investor-centric company aiming to assist and offer a one-stop solution for the entire investment lifecycle. Through providing robust WealthTech solutions to financial institutions in the region, AQUMON hopes to service an even greater number of people.
