Singapore-headquartered fintech startup banco (RABC Group) announced the successful raise of $6.7 million in Series A funding led by Japan-based leading financial group SBI Group, alongside investors Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC), R3, Savills, KZM & Company, and others.

With this fundraise, banco will look towards recruiting talents with technology and business development expertise, as well as, market expansion within the Southeast Asia region.

banco has also recently partnered with leading real estate advisor, Savills (Singapore) to digitise financing solutions and enhance sustainability practices in the property industry. With more industry partnerships in the pipeline, banco aims to reach out to more than 1000 MSMEs in 2022.

“We are excited to lead banco’s Series-A fundraising together with our strategic partners, SMBC, and R3. There would be collaborations among SBI, SMBC, R3, and banco, to offer more inclusive financing solutions and achieve ESG targets for SMEs in Asia. We believe that banco will grow to be the leader in its sector.” says Yoshitaka Kitao, CEO, SBI Holdings.
