Finantix regional director for Asia Damien Piper said: “This is the first of a series of senior hires as part of our strategy to build local teams that really understand the region’s financial markets, local cultures and market dynamics.

“Our long-standing commitment to the region and our strong track record means we are well placed to help financial institutions leverage their existing and future investments in technology.

“Haruka will play an important role as we execute further major transformational digital programmes for our expanding customer base.”

Banking major HSBC tapped Finantix two weeks ago to launch a global client wealth management portal.

Deutsche Bank also partnered with the software provider recently to improve its KYC processes.
