Partnership further strengthens AMK’s capabilities in providing affordable and reliable financial services across EMQ’s extensive global settlement network
HONG KONG & PHNOM PENH, Cambodia, July 7 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- AMK, the provider of microfinance services in Cambodia, and EMQ, a global financial settlement network, have teamed up to facilitate cross-border money transfer across Southeast Asia. This partnership enables AMK to integrate with EMQ’s extensive global network for secure, compliant, and cost-effective cross-border solutions, making financial services more accessible and inclusive for their customers and families across the region.
“Remittances provide a lifeline for millions of households in developing countries especially in Southeast Asia, where EMQ has a long standing commitment in providing affordable, secure and reliable cross-border money transfers to the communities in the region,” said Max Liu, co-founder and CEO of EMQ. “By connecting AMK directly to our global network, we are offering our customers the best possible choices and flexibility to send money home effortlessly within minutes. We are excited to partner with AMK to make a positive impact in Cambodia and beyond.”
Powered by EMQ’s global financial settlement network and AMK’s capabilities, customers in Cambodia can seamlessly transfer money, in real-time and enjoy a full range of payout options including instant cash pickup, bank deposits to the partnered banks, deposit into a mobile wallet, or home delivery of cash to support their families back home across Southeast Asia. This will create a more inclusive economy for a region, where only 27% of the population have access to financial services.
“At AMK, we are committed to provide every customer with secure, fast and convenient access to financial services across Asia, where EMQ has a strong footprint with the widest payout options,” said Kea Borann, CEO of AMK. “Our partnership with EMQ marks an important milestone in our next phase of growth as we continue to expand our presence across the world’s top recipient-receiving countries to best serve our customers’ needs.”
