Akulaku

Akulaku is a Southeast Asian fintech unicorn that provides consumer credit, digital banking, wealth management, and insurance brokerage services.

History
Akulaku was officially founded in 2016 by William Li and Gordon Hu. Before it became Akulaku, the company began in 2014 by providing cross-border remittance services for domestic workers in Hong Kong as Silvrr before branching out to operate its online credit and e-commerce platform in Indonesia and the Philippines. In 2016, the company pivoted into a fintech company.

In 2019, Akulaku acquired an Indonesian bank called PT Bank Yudha Bhakti Tbk (BBYB) and later renamed it PT Bank Neo Commerce Tbk (BNC).
