"Our decision to list on the Swiss stock exchange SIX is a strategic choice, 
taken with a long-term view. Switzerland is a vibrant and growing hub for 
Fintech innovation with a strong and supportive regulatory environment. We are 
planning to open a local branch here in Switzerland to support strategic 
partnerships in Europe." said Allen Wu, Chairman of Achiko. "We are delighted 
to be listed at SIX Swiss Exchange and look forward to continuing Achiko's 
success story with our expanded investor base."

Achiko provides payment solutions for games and digital commerce through 
different channels such as telephone bill, stores, e-wallets and ATMs. It 
constantly seeks applications that go beyond the gaming market. Following the 
listing of its shares at SIX Swiss Exchange, Achiko will continue to evaluate 
such applications with the aim to provide a broader range of financial services.

In Achiko's starting primary market in Indonesia, about half of the 
approximately 260 million inhabitants do not have a bank account, and for those 
who have a bank account the level of credit card and consumer credit options 
remain low. Worldwide, the number of people who do not have their own bank 
account is estimated at around 1.7 billion. In addition to Achiko's current 
activities in Indonesia, Thailand and also the Philippines, Myanmar and Vietnam 
are among the most important target markets for regional expansion.
