Strong partnerships
“Australia is helping advance fintech in the Philippines through strategic partnerships.

The partnership builds on Australia and the Philippines’ memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed between FinTech Alliance.ph and Austrade in November 2023.
This agreement aims to enhance fintech policy and regulation, promote knowledge sharing, improve access to capital opportunities, and address market barriers.
