2021 Winners
Best Disruptive Solution
PRIVÉ TECHNOLOGIES & QUANTIT
– David Lee, President, Privé Technologies
– Duckhee Han, CEO, Quantit
FINTER, developed by South Korea-based fintech Quantit, is an asset management solution that uses artificial intelligence and statistical analysis to scour structured and unstructured data sources such as news reports to recommend and back-test potential portfolios that are optimised to clients’ risk-and-return characteristics. The entire process is run from the cloud and without the requirement of human intervention.
FINTER, which is distributed via Quantit’s joint venture with wealthtech specialist Privé Technologies, gained traction with wealth-related clients in Asia-Pacific during 2021. A Singapore-based financial institution deployed the technology within its retail business, while an external asset manager (EAM) in the Southeast Asian city-state is equally using FINTER.
Another solution developed by Quantit that is disrupting the wealth space is RABIT, a robo advisor that invests in cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin. The platform uses artificial intelligence to recommend an array of products and strategies to clients that are designed to reduce the high levels of volatility associated with crypto-assets. A South Korea-based asset manager is considering deploying RABIT for use by its wealth management clients.
That is why Privé Technologies and Quantit are Asian Private Banker’s 2021 winner of the Technology Award for Best Disruptive Solution.
