We aim to validate the business model in Sri Lanka and we have already engaged three Chinese EPC Contractors and 10 local Suppliers to roll out the system. A SPV was set up to fund the working capitals requirements of the five suppliers. Before we open the platform to 3rd funders, we want to ensure the platform is in compliance with both Hong Kong and local regulatory requirements. To this end, we are engaging an international law firm in Hong Kong and its Sri Lankan partner for legal opinions.
Future Plan:
There are a number of opportunities in Sri Lanka which are in the BRI pipeline. We are also exploring the possibility of rolling out the platform to other markets where we have already existing connections and resources given our experience and network at Standard Chartered Bank.
On the funding side we want to onboard select 3rd party professional investors and to educate them on such initiative with the aim of providing local suppliers sufficient funding and earn platform fees
