This extended funding will give us the ability to focus upon growth in both Asia and in the U.K. We have been expanding the team to support this and signing new partnerships in the region, such as the recently announced involvement with AIA Group, Asia’s largest pan-Asian Life Insurer.”

This extended funding announcement comes on the back of the firms signing an agreement recently with AIA Group Limited (1299.HK) to provide services across Asia.
