The other side of the problem is opportunity. As a former bank employee who often encountered obstacles when handling customer documents in the workplace, Daphne Ng was inspired to switch careers and start a technology start-up company, Dedoco, dedicated to solving problems in the industry and improving digital trust and operational efficiency.

The corporate banking department she was responsible for, specialised in providing structured commodities and trade financing to customers. During this period, she personally experienced the cumbersome operations. and inefficiency.

In an interview with Lianhe Zaobao, the female entrepreneur said: “The trade field requires compliance with compliance requirements, which involves a large number of documents, and also faces problems such as incomplete ownership transfers and fraudulent transactions.
