GoBear: Fintech is shaping business digital transformation

The event hosted by GoBear Vietnam attracts many senior executives from financial services, real estate and fintech organisations operating in Vietnam

During the event, keynote speakers Rachan “Butch” Reddy, general partner of IDG Ventures Vietnam and Marnix Zwart, co-founder and chief product officer of GoBear shared key domain expertise and engaged the audience in meaningful discussions about the development of fintech in Vietnam, as well as how to positively disrupt the market via digital transformation.

“It was an honor and a pleasure speaking at the BEARTalk event in front of such a distinguished group of industry leaders. I look forward to building on the strong relationships that were formed today,” Rachan “Butch” Reddy said.

On this occasion, Sean Preston, country manager, Visa Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos also shared: “The event is a great opportunity for those who are interested in fintech to network and have engaging conversations on developments in the industry. I also learned more about GoBear, the good services they offer, and can now make others aware in my interactions with clients and the industry.”

“It is my great pleasure that the BEARTalk event provided knowledge and effective networking for our honored guests. GoBear Vietnam has also received more exposure from potential partners in different industries, which is very encouraging. I will continue to host future events to provide meaningful sharing opportunities and to raise awareness for the fintech community,” Bao Nguyen, GoBear Vietnam’s country manager concluded.

Since the official launch in Vietnam in early December 2016 with five products - comparison of credit cards, personal loans, travel insurance, fixed deposits, and bank accounts - as well as educational pages for credit cards, bank accounts, and unsecured loans, GoBear Vietnam has landed over four million sessions to become a trusted provider of comparison services for financial products in Vietnam.

GoBear is Asia’s first and only metasearch engine in insurance and financial products. It was founded based on the simple premise that a consumer should find freedom and ease in choosing complex financial products like insurance, credit cards and loans.

Headquartered in Singapore since early 2015, GoBear has established presence in Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines, Hong Kong and Vietnam and will continue to expand across Asia in 2018.

As one of the fastest growing fintech startups in Asia, GoBear is leading the way in making financial products accessible to all with its unbiased and personalised comparison process. GoBear’s user-oriented platform neither aggregates nor sells products.

GoBear simply offers consumers a free and transparent comparison process based on their financial needs, and not influenced by service providers’ commissions or advertising.
