GCash is joining Singapore Fintech Festival 2026, the biggest gathering of fintech
players, for the fourth consecutive year to share insights and best practices to
advance financial inclusion.

Now a publicly listed company, GCash parent Mynt brings the Philippine fintech industry’s
growth story to the global stage, demonstrating how homegrown innovation can expand
financial inclusion and make financial services more accessible to millions of Filipinos.

For GCash, this reflects how a technology designed around people’s everyday needs
can help transform the financial landscape in the Philippines and even abroad.

Key leaders of the Philippines’ leading finance super app will join panel sessions,
sharing insights and experiences that have shaped the growth of GCash and the broader
Philippine fintech landscape. Participating leaders include Tony Isidro, President
and CEO of Fuse Financing, Inc., the lending arm of GCash, Winsley Bangit, the Head
of New Businesses at Mynt, the parent company of GCash, and Michelle Fernandez, 
GCash Head of Corporate Sustainability and Communications.

Mynt’s IPO, the biggest in Philippine corporate history, marks an important milestone
for the country’s capital market. It creates an opportunity for more Filipinos, 
including first-time investors, to participate in the growth of a homegrown tech
company through the public markets.

"Digital financial access should not be a privilege reserved for a limited few. 
Technology can help make financial services more inclusive, accessible, relevant,
and responsive to the realities of everyday Filipinos," Mynt President and CEO Martha
Sazon shared.

Isidro, for his part, will speak at the Global SME Forum Roundtable where he will
discuss how digital ecosystems can translate customer and transaction activity into
accessible, scalable credit products

Bangit will also join a fireside chat with the Securities and Exchange Commission
to discuss emerging trends in investing. The session will highlight how progressive
regulation, meaningful industry collaboration, and fintech innovation are unlocking
greater access to instruments like bonds, funds, and stocks for more Filipinos, 
making diverse investing more affordable while strengthening consumer protection.

Meanwhile, Fernandez will take part in the "Sustainability-Linked Finance for MSMEs"
panel to discuss GCash initiatives that promote sustainable practices among MSMEs.
One of these is Project Sirius MSME Scorecard, which makes sustainability reporting
more straightforward, and helps MSMEs qualify for sustainability-linked financing.

GCash will showcase Filipino fintech innovations at its booth at the Singapore Expo
Hall 2, featuring demonstrations of key app services and AI-powered technologies
that enhance security, service and financial education.

SFF, the largest gathering of fintech players, will take place on November 18 to
20 at the Singapore Expo, with the theme "The Coming Rewiring of the Financial System:
New Risks. New Rules. New Growth." The event will bring together leading fintech
companies, investors, payment network operators, central banks, government representatives,
and other industry stakeholders.
