FPT and audax Financial Technology target USD 100M revenue in three years, boosting digital banking in Asia Pacific and the Middle East.
Global IT services provider FPT has formed a strategic alliance with audax Financial Technology (audax), a comprehensive digital banking technology solutions provider backed by Standard Chartered. This partnership aims to deliver scalable, secure, and innovative digital banking experiences to financial institutions across the fast-growing Asia Pacific and Middle East regions, with a target revenue of USD 100 million over three years.
Under this agreement, FPT becomes audax’s largest regional partner in Asia Pacific, taking on a key role in development, testing, deployment, and long-term operational support. The partnership combines audax’s plug-and-play digital banking platform with FPT’s deep capabilities in cloud-native development, microservices architecture, DevSecOps, and agile delivery. With significant portions of the population in Asia Pacific remaining underbanked, this joint offering empowers financial institutions to modernize legacy systems and enhance new ones, while adopting innovative models such as embedded finance and Banking-as-a-Service to drive financial inclusion and meet the growing demand for digital financial services.
This strategic partnership positions FPT and audax to strengthen their presence in the digital banking solutions market in Asia Pacific and the Middle East, two of the world’s most dynamic fintech regions. The Asia Pacific digital banking market is projected to surge by 110%, reaching USD 360 billion by 2030, while the Middle East digital banking market is expected to grow by 58%, hitting USD 2.6 billion by 2030. These figures underscore the immense potential for innovation and growth.
