Hanwha currently manages up to 100 trillion won (US$ 87.88 billion) of assets. The two sides forged a strategic partnership in 2015.
Anthemis -- founded in 2010 -- is led by Nadeem Shaikh, who recently spoke of Korea’s potential in the fintech market. In June, he visited Pangyo here to meet with the heads of more than 40 fintech companies.
Regarding the progress, Shaikh told the local press that while the Korean government appears to be providing solid administrative support, the competitiveness of local fintech firms is yet to be proven.
