FIN CAPITAL TO ESTABLISH ASIA PRESENCE WITH TOKYO OFFICE

KUALA LUMPUR, March 5 (Bernama) -- Fin Capital, a global asset manager, announced it will establish a formal presence in Asia, with the opening of an office in Tokyo as its Asia headquarters.

Founder and Managing Partner, Logan Allin in a statement said the Japanese market is an invaluable gateway to the entire Asia region and one that Fin Capital has engaged with since its inception in 2018.

“We see incredible opportunities to engage with entrepreneurs and deepen our relationships with institutional partners, and we are thrilled to take the next step in building our local team and making Tokyo our official home in the region,” he added.

The company made the announcement in conjunction with the GFTN Forum Japan, a premier fintech conference in the region, where Allin is speaking at the conference, of which the company is also a sponsor.

The selection of the Tokyo office was based on Fin Capital’s strong relationships with Japanese institutions and the country’s robust and globally respected financial services ecosystem.

Additionally, in recent years, Japan has seen a significant increase in corporate adoption of Fintech, and a rapid expansion of the innovation and startup ecosystem. Fin Capital has observed momentum in its own portfolio companies, partnering with Japanese companies or entering the market.

As part of the strategic office opening, Fin Capital plans to hire a Tokyo-based team that will engage with corporate partners and support market entry for Fin Capital’s global portfolio of fintech companies.

Fin Capital team members, namely General Partner, Christian Ostberg; Principal and Director of AI, Fan Wen; and Associate, Rina Okachi, will provide coverage from the United States team with support from Senior Advisors, Ronald Issen, Huey Lin Gaume, and Siew Kai Choy in Singapore.
