“Mr. Pai represents a significant addition to
our Board of Directors and corporate governance,” said Rohith
Murthy, CEO of MoneyHero. “His leadership in the technology sector,
as well as a proven track record of success running large-scale
enterprises in the Asia Pacific region, will bring immense value to
our operations and growth strategy. Mr. Pai has contributed to the
vision and oversight of many notable multinational companies
throughout his illustrious career, and we are thrilled to have him
on board. Moreover, this marks the second major Board appointment
that we have achieved this year, which is critical to our future
and a testament to the reputation and stature of the MoneyHero
Brand.”
The appointment of Mr. Pai follows the addition
of accomplished legal and finance executive Steve Teichman to the

experience with U.S. capital markets and leading businesses in Asia
Pacific.
“I am honored to join MoneyHero’s Board and
excited to bring new ideas and resources to this winning
organization,” said Mr. Pai. “I have been following the MoneyHero
story for a while, even before the Company went public last year,
and I have been impressed by the strategy and fundamentals of the
business, as well as their clear leadership-positioning in the
marketplace, which will enable them to continue innovating and
outpacing its peers. MoneyHero is absolutely forwarding the fintech
industry in Greater Southeast Asia, and I am very much looking
