Tookitaki is proud to partner with AEON Bank (M) Berhad, Malaysia's first Islamic digital bank, to fight financial crime jointly. The bank received authorisation to commence operations in January 2024 and has chosen Tookitaki’s FinCense for continuous protection against screening lapses, money laundering and fraud.
Malaysia has robust compliance controls that align with the FATF 40 Recommendations. Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) has introduced stringent measures to curb new financial crime risks, such as multiple parties involved in loans or high-volume transactions driven by digital platforms, including social media. AEON Bank, which serves the younger generation and micro and small businesses, recognises these challenges and chose Tookitaki for unmatched risk coverage.
"Malaysia's fintech industry is expected to grow at a 15% CAGR over the next five years, bringing rapid change to the country’s financial services industry. We admire our partner AEON Bank’s vision to foster growth through financial inclusion," said Tookitaki Founder & CEO, Abhishek Chatterjee. "Tookitaki remains committed to empowering its partners with the right technology and knowledge to fight financial crime," added Mr Chatterjee.
Tookitaki's strategic alliance with AEON Bank signifies a major stride in elevating compliance standards and strengthening the integrity of Malaysia’s financial system.
