SINGAPORE, April 9, 2019 /PRNewswire-Asianet/ --

Avatec.ai (S) Pte. Ltd (Avatec), a financial services technology platform 
specializing in digital lending solutions, today announced that its 
wholly-owned subsidiary PT. Avatec Services Indonesia (Avatec Indonesia) has 
been approved by the Indonesian regulator to be a credit scoring solution 
provider in the country's Digital Financial Innovation (DFI) sandbox program.

Avatec Indonesia is one of the first fintech firms approved by the Indonesian 
Financial Services Authority (OJK) as DFI providers. With the approval, Avatec 
Indonesia can collaborate with registered or licensed financial service 
institutions in the country to provide end-to-end digital lending services. 

The DFI sandbox program was launched by OJK in August 2018 to enable innovative 
fintech companies to test their business models and processes and to conduct 
financial services in Indonesia. 

Dennis Tan, chief executive officer of Avatec, said, "Receiving the greenlight 
from OJK to be part of the DFI sandbox program is a key milestone for Avatec as 
it will enable us to showcase our AI-driven digital credit assessment solution 
in Indonesia. We look forward to helping banks and companies in Indonesia offer 
financial solutions to a larger base of customers with more certainty and 
accuracy through our smart digital solution." 

Avatec is a joint venture launched by United Overseas Bank and Pintec 
Technology Holdings Ltd (PINTEC) in April 2018. By leveraging artificial 
intelligence and machine learning technologies, the company provides 
next-generation digital credit assessment solutions to enable financial 
institutions and business partners to offer financial products in a more 
efficient way when assessing credit quality of potential customers in Southeast 
Asia.

Avatec's solution analyses a broader set of digitized data beyond what is 
traditionally used in evaluating personal or business credit applications and 
is able to determine an applicant's credit quality within seconds.
