ISLAMABAD, October 10, 2024 – FinVolution Group (NYSE: FINV), a leading fintech company, has officially launched its latest digital financial platform, Daira, in Pakistan. The launch, held in Islamabad on October 10, 2024, marks a pivotal step in the company’s global expansion strategy as it aims to deliver localized and secure digital financial services tailored specifically for the Pakistani market.
Pakistan, a country with a youthful population and growing digital economy, still has millions of individuals without access to basic financial services. Recognizing this gap as an opportunity for growth and innovation, FinVolution is poised to drive financial inclusion through its advanced technology and extensive market localization expertise. Earlier this year, the company obtained a Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC) license from the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP), ensuring that its operations comply with local regulations.
Speaking at the launch, Tiezheng Li, CEO of FinVolution Group, highlighted the importance of Pakistan in the company’s broader global vision. “The launch of Daira in Pakistan is a key milestone in our global expansion. We have successfully established leading brands across APAC markets, leveraging our advanced technology and localization strategies, and we believe we can replicate this success in Pakistan. We are excited about the opportunities here and will continue to pursue new markets to further expand our global footprint.”

Xiaodong Sun, Senior Vice President of FinVolution, expressed optimism about Daira’s potential in Pakistan, citing the country’s vast untapped market. “With our proven experience in overseas expansion, we are confident in Daira’s success. We aim to understand the unique needs of local users and develop financial solutions tailored to their requirements. Our goal is to provide safer, more efficient, and inclusive digital financial services to empower individuals and small enterprises in Pakistan.”
In 2024, FinVolution has made strides across multiple markets, securing key financial licenses, including the NBFC license in Pakistan, a multi-finance license from Indonesia’s Financial Services Authority (OJK), and accreditation as a Special Accessing Entity (SAE) by the Credit Information Corporation (CIC) in the Philippines.
Founded in 2007 in Shanghai, China, FinVolution has been a pioneer in the pan-Asian credit technology industry. The company went public on the New York Stock Exchange in 2017 and has since expanded its operations globally, establishing leading fintech platforms in China, Indonesia, and the Philippines. The company’s AI chatbot SaaS platform, BLU AI, extends its services to Latin America and Africa, reaching nearly 40 fintech companies worldwide.
FinVolution’s international operations have been a significant contributor to its overall success, with its latest financial report revealing that as of Q2 2024, the company had served 5.6 million overseas users, contributing nearly 20% of the group’s total revenue.
