Chinese robo-adviser Polaris plans Asian expansion
China's Polaris is planning to expand its robo-advice platform, both domestically and into other Asian markets. The robo-adviser recently launched a venture in Singapore, dubbed Pivot Fintech, and is planning to offer its white-label robo-advice solutions to a number of banks with interest in the technology. The firm is seeing particular demand from provincial banks as they come under increasing pressure from the entry of tech companies like Alibaba and Tencent Holdings into the finance sector.
