JAKARTADAILY.ID – Investree, a B2B marketplace lending platform for SMEs, reminds the public to be careful of financial platforms that illegally claim to be affiliated with other financial services without official cooperation which could potentially bring harm to its users.
Investree Co-Founder & CEO, Adrian Gunadi said, currently, there are many financial platforms that claim to be automatically connected to other accounts at banks, e-wallet, to fintech lending. This includes automatic financial recording applications that claim to be able to connect to Investree accounts and request access to their users' financial accounts at Investree (or other financial accounts).
“This finding is not surprising considering that digitalization is now accelerating. It should be balanced with strong and always updated financial literacy so that people are careful," he said in a press release, Monday, May 30, 2022.
Through moments like this, his party affirms its commitment to continue to strengthen financial literacy because it is very important to help people choose safe, legal, and useful financial platforms.
"We are also intensively doing this in the countries where Investree operates, including Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand," he explained.
