SINGAPORE -- One of Southeast Asia's most prolific technology startups and the region's largest telecommunications firm launched their digital banking joint venture in Singapore on Wednesday, becoming the first mover in a high-stakes battle for consumer finances.
Singapore-based superapp developer Grab and telco Singtel announced the rollout of the city-state's newest virtual bank, named GXS, more than a year and a half after winning one of two full digital lending licenses awarded by the Asian financial hub.
