The rise of Fintech has gotten many Malaysians used to the idea of using digital services or digital wallets on a daily basis but for some, it’s more than just convenience. There are currently over 1.7 million migrant workers in Malaysia and giving them the ability to transfer money directly and instantly to help them reach out to their families in their home countries is crucial. Valyou is one of these services. We speak to Prasanna Rao, CEO of Valyou Malaysia to learn more about how they’re targeting this niche market with a Fintech solution.
