- AGBA集團今日與Sony Life Financial Advisers Pte Ltd簽署收購協議
- 是次收購為AGBA業務由大灣區擴展至東南亞地區的重要里程碑
香港和新加坡2023年4月5日 /美通社/ -- 納斯達克上市公司AGBA Group Holding Limited（「AGBA」「匯邦」）今日宣布於2023年4月5日訂立一份買賣協議，收購Sony Life Financial Advisers Pte Ltd -- 一家在新加坡獲得正式許可的財務顧問和保險經紀公司。AGBA連同其子公司統稱「AGBA集團」或「匯邦集團」，為一家總部在香港的領先一站式金融超市。
AGBA集圑在中國大灣區提供廣泛的金融和醫療保健服務，深受超過400,000名個人和企業客戶的信賴。AGBA集團擁有一系列獨特兼互補性的業務，結合市場領先業務與新興業務模式，為龐大的專屬客戶群提供服務，並通過不同的B2B和B2C分銷渠道，引入各種創新的金融及醫療產品和服務，為公司業務帶來增長。
是次收購不單標誌AGBA發展的重要里程碑，更能為AGBA的保險及金融科技業務帶來豐厚回報，以及在亞洲主要市場擴展業務。儘管AGBA主要業務聚焦大灣區，包括香港和澳門，不過選擇新加坡，是因為當地是享譽全球的創新、商業和金融中心，人均收入排名世界第10，是儲蓄率最高的國家之一。
新加坡亦是全球最大及發展最迅速的家族辦公室和財富管理中心之一。AGBA相信長遠而言，其在財富管理方面的先進技術和基礎設施，將可為行業帶來耳目一新的解決方案。
Sony Life Financial Advisers Pte Ltd董事總經理兼首席執行官Yoshiki Moriyama表示：「我們相信AGBA有能力、資源及決心，將SLFA推上新台階。我們將與AGBA攜手合作，以獲得監管機構和其他批准。同時，SLFA將繼續為客戶提供高質素服務。在獲得相關批准後，SLFA與AGBA會確保有序和無縫過渡。是次收購協議對所有持分者來說，均是好消息。我們致力繼續支持AGBA，並確保SLFA能夠取得成功。」
AGBA集團總裁吳榮輝表示，除大灣區外，東南亞地區在發展金融服務市場方面，亦扮演關鍵角色。
吳榮輝表示：「在東南亞地區中，新加坡基於其戰略地理位置，以及其在創新及金融的全球中心地位，發展潛力龐大，舉足輕重。AGBA將繼續利用科技，配合現有基礎設施、業務合作夥伴及龐大客戶群，優化客戶體驗。」吳榮輝補充，AGBA會繼續物色新客戶和合作夥伴，進一步鞏固競爭優勢。
吳榮輝說：「AGBA及Sony Financial Advisers的業務相近兼產品可互相補足，因此是次收購是一個雙贏方案。我們期望藉著是次收購，可以為AGBA帶來新的前景和商機，尤其是在東南亞地區。」
