Lawrence Yong's Linkedin Analytics

I am a seasoned professional and Fintech entrepreneur with over 22 years of experience in the financial sector. Throughout my career, I've developed extensive proficiency in Wealth Management and Capital Markets, specializing in Fixed Income and Structured Products. My areas of expertise are in business development, sales and product management. As an entrepreneur, I have founded, led, and exited successful ventures in the fields of digital lending, securities-based crowdfunding, and embedded finance, creating value for SMEs, investors, and the economy. My recent pursuits were in creating a comprehensive embedded finance platform designed specifically for SMEs with multi-currency functionalities and specialized applications that make on-demand financing easier. Prior to this, I was instrumental in launching Securities-based Crowdfunding, a fusion of the latest FinTech innovations with emerging regulations. A key highlight of my career was establishing, leading, and ultimately transitioning from the role of CEO at MoolahSense, a market leader and Singapore's first regulated Securities-based Crowdfunding operator. My interest lies in leveraging technology and data to develop inclusive and sustainable solutions for the future. Inspired by shepherd leadership, I became a Gallup-Certified CliftonStrengths coach and am professionally trained to support the growth of leaders subscribing to ICF ethics and guidelines. I am a promoter of strengths-based culture within organizations that foster an environment where talents and businesses thrive. My top strengths—Learner, Futuristic, Strategic, Analytical, and Ideation—shape my innovative and analytical approach to problem-solving.
